His analysis assumed the state would find a way to make up for the borrowing prohibited by the court, and pay nearly $2 billion more for pensions, health care, education and other needs.

Rally will call for McGreevey's immediate resignation
"This is a bipartisan issue," he [Derek Lucas] said. "Democrats and Republicans alike want to have him go, and go now. I want people to be able to choose who their next governor is. I don't want an unelected acting governor for 14 months."
