Economopoulos/The Star-Ledger TRENTON — The Republican National Committee is spending more than a half-million dollars to get New Jersey Hispanics and African-Americans to vote GOP, part of its Election Day blitz to lure voters.

The dining room at Sabor Latino Restaurant was packed with supporters holding cell phones aloft to capture Gov. Chris Christie’s every word. In some ways, the mid-October campaign stop was routine. The Republican governor has made dozens to GOP’s “Don’t Care” list with women and minorities. The recent government shutdown by the Republicans made it excruciatingly clear that they don’t care about military veteran, active military or their families any more than they care about women or America’s underprivileged.
