1. I am glad to see that several Democrats received these awards

I also noticed that nobody from NJ was chosen but some one from AL was. That doesnt surprise me any since I know the enviroment is an issue here unlike NJ.

3. Hey, it's not so bad in New Jersey

New Jersey got the most toxic waste dumps and California got the most lawyers because New Jersey got first choice.
