FRANKLIN LAKES - New Jersey Democrats gathered at a fund-raiser Tuesday night designed to propel Paul Aronsohn, the former communications director for former Gov. James E. McGreevey, to Congress.

The star guest of the evening was New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson, who has been mentioned as a possible Democratic presidential candidate in 2008.

Richardson portrayed Aronsohn as a Democrat who has been successful in Republican territory.

"He's the only Democrat at Pfizer where there are 9,000 Republicans," Richardson said with a laugh.

Aronsohn has not decided whether to run next year for the 5th Congressional District seat against two-term incumbent Rep. Scott Garrett, R-Wantage. But Aronsohn indicated that he would make a final decision "within a few weeks."

The event attracted about 50 local elected officials, community activists and campaign supporters.
