Friday, May 18, 1984 Salinas Californian 9 Mondale, Hart battle for New Jersey votes By The Associated Press Walter Mondale and Gary Hart are battling in New Jersey while their campaigns scour a special group of unpledged delegates party pros in each state in crucial Democratic presidential nominating votes. The third candidate, the Rev. Jesse Jackson, remains in California where his appeal to minority voters shifted Thursday to Asian-Americans, and where he holds a fund-raiser tonight at the Los Angeles home of Jim Brown, former running back for the NFL's Cleveland Browns. Mondale was flying New Jersey today as Hart was leaving after a day of campaigning.

New Jersey's primary on June with 107 delegates at stake, has emerged as a pivotal battleground, along with California. And Hart's backers were starting to talk optimistically about the Garden State, once seen as likely Mondale territory. We have an upset in the making," said New Jersey state Democratic Party chairman Jim Maloney, a Hart backer. He acknowledged, however, that Mondale probably leads in the state now.

This is the America that President Reagan's campaign committee is depicting in the first television commercials of the president's drive for a second term. The seven advertisements will begin airing next Monday at a cost of roughly $2 million over eight days. The commercials "try to create an environment that people feel comfortable with," Ed Rollins, Reagan's campaign manager, said Thursday as he showed them to reporters. "We wanted to remind people how things were and how they're getting better," he said. Several of the commercials stress that an economic recovery has taken hold during Reagan's term in office.
