New Jersey Governor Hurt In Car Accident

Governor Jon Corzine (D-New Jersey) has been seriously injured in a car wreck on the Garden State Parkway near Atlantic City.

He apparently has a broken leg and is in a Camden hospital for surgery.

State Senate President and perennial Acting Governor Richard Codey is once again Acting Governor while Corzine is in surgery.

The Star-Ledger has it. More updates as they become available.

UPDATE: This from the Star-Ledger:

Corzine also had a broken sternum, a broken collarbone, a slight fracture of the lower vertebrae and six broken ribs on each side, said Dr. Steven Ross, trauma director at Cooper University Hospital in Camden, where the governor was taken by helicopter after the crash in Galloway Township. Corzine also had laceration on his head, but did not sustain any brain or spinal cord damage in the accident.
