Schundler wins NJ gubernatorial
primary
----------
In a primary election widely seen as a battle for the soul of
the Republican Party, ideological conservative and Jersey City mayor Bret
Schundler handily beat "moderate" Bob Franks, a four-term

painted as electoral poison during the campaign. (06/27/01)
