: : I am a Rutgers student writing a paper on Jersey City.  I was hoping that you would be able to give me some information on any organizations or institutions that are politically influential in the city.  This would be of great appreciation.

: The most "politically influential" institution is the US Attorney's Office.

: On a serious note, certainly since the time of Hague, individuals wield and field organizations.  That's why one speaks of the Hague Machine and the Kenny Machine.  The organizations are not self-perpetuating, in the fashion of Tammany of NYC, the Mafia, or Soviet Communism.  In Jersey City, organizations rise and fall on the fortunes of one person.

: And of course there are many economic interests -- e.g. unions and developers -- that seek to attain goals through politics.

: And what's your definition of influential?  Not unlike Afghanistan, Jersey City is made up of an ever shifting patchwork of fiefs.

: If you'd like a list of politically influential people, that's easy to produce.  But, there's no way to tell how quickly you'll need to update it.
