Jerseyans with clout, with an impact on politics and government

In 2008, Atlantic City radio personality Harry Hurley was the
Reader's Choice for #100. In a two-day online poll that
attracted nearly 2,900 voters, Hurley defeated Republican State
Chairman Tom Wilson by a 35%-15% margin. Public Policy guru Jon
Shure finished third with 12%, just narrowly leading Union
County Manager George Devanney (12%). None of the other six
candidates -- Cape May County GOP Chairman David Von Savage,
attorney and Democratic fundraiser Victor Herlinsky,
conservative political strategist Rick Shaftan, Burlington
County GOP Chairman Mike Warner, and Jersey City political
activists Bobby Jackson and Joe Cardwell -- finished in the
double digits.
Hurley also won a 2007 Reader's Choice poll.
