	Murray Sabrin for U.S. Senate (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Zimmer, the former Republican congressman and unsuccessful candidate for U.S. Senate, had decided -- as expected -- to stick to his plan to try to win his House seat back in the 12th District next year, the seat currently occupied by Democrat Rush Holt, who took it away from Republican Michael Pappas.
		Zimmer's plans regarding a run for a Senate seat have changed so often that it is hard to keep up.
		But in the latest instance, he had been planning to run for the House when Gov. Christie Whitman was the presumed GOP nominee for Sen. Frank Lautenberg's seat, and he's decided to keep running for the House with her out of the race and the GOP Senate nomination up for grabs.

		Zimmer’s mother died of lymphoma when Zimmer was still in high school, a life cut tragically short.
		In fact, Zimmer did vote against extending coverage for annual mammograms for Medicare-eligible women in 1995, but the vote was on one of a series of Democratic amendments to a much broader, and largely unrelated, Medicare bill.
		When Zimmer ran for the Senate in 1996, he was subjected to almost identical attacks from his then-rival, U.S. Sen. Bob Torricelli, and it was reported at the time that Zimmer's sisters and his mother had suffered from cancer.

	Possible Fraud in Zimmer-Holt House Race in NJ [Free Republic]
		Zimmer said he expects to "finish a little bit short" and estimated the vote difference will be about one-tenth of 1 percent, or roughly 300 votes.
		Once Zimmer files his recount request, a judge will be assigned by the state Supreme Court, hold a hearing and then set a date for the recount of the district's mix of electronic and mechanical machines and also paper-absentee and provisional ballots, said Paul Loriquet, a spokesman for the state's Division of Elections.
		Zimmer alluded to those irregularities yesterday, when he said he owed it to his voters to make sure there was a fair and accurate count and that the person receiving the most "valid votes" should serve.
