Sandy Victims get shafted.
It will take days/weeks for some people in New Jersey who lost power to be reconnected.
Especially as Non-Union Linemen were turned away.

Chris Christie has demanded that the utility companies work harder to return power to the 1.7 million still in the dark.
He should sign an Executive Order to request "All" aid and provide security via armed NJ National Guard.

I saw that at another forum and there was a reply that there was some kind of group set up so that the crews would be sent to the places needing it most. Anyway the bottom line story was a little different than what this story is. Which one is true I have no clue, but I would hope that they would not send someone packing.

that may be true with con-ed in new york, but it ain't true here in New Jersey.
there are 5 southern crews working in my town alone.
Jersey Central Power & Light welcomed the non union crews help with open arms. some of the JCP&L guys have not been home in 5 days now.
