New Jersey Becomes Key Player
Changing the date of New Jersey's primary from June to this Tuesday has made the state a central player in the presidential race.

NEW YORK, NY February 04, 2008 —With just a day to go, 2 of the top contenders are coming to New Jersey.
Senator John McCain will address supporters at a firehouse in Hamilton, outside of Trenton.
Senator Barack Obama will rally his supporters at the Meadowlands.
Meanwhile, Senator Hillary Clinton will be at a Burlington County event, though via satellite, as part of her simulcast national town hall meeting.
Both Obama and McCain won the Sunday endorsements from The Star Ledger and The Bergen Record.
New Jersey independents are a part of the mix too - state law allows them to vote in the party primaries.
For WNYC, I'm Bob Hennelly.
