Today former U.S. senator Bill Bradley announced his endorsement of Mark Alexander in his primary race to unseat incumbent Nia Gill.

senator bill bradleyFrom his time as a college intern in my Senate office, to his work as Policy Director on my 2000 presidential campaign, Mark has been a thoughtful, energized, and articulate champion of Democratic causes and progressive policies. I am endorsing his campaign in the 34th District Democratic primary because he is the type of leader we need in the New Jersey State Senate.
