Bill Spadea
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bill Spadea was the Republican nominee for United States Congress in New Jersey's 12th congressional district in 2004. Running a grassroots campaign that included walking 200 miles to each of 44 towns in the district, he topped 40% of the vote on election day[1] and was ranked 17th out of 157 GOP challengers nationwide. The Home News Tribune had this to say about him in 2004, "Spadea is an attention getter. He's full of life, determination, and well-thought-out positions. No doubt, voters will have another chance to put him into public office..."
Spadea was successful raising more money than any other Republican challenger in New Jersey in 2004. He was considered a possible candidate for the United States Senate in 2006.[2]
