TRENTON -- The state Democratic Party and the Secretary of State's office have been served grand jury subpoenas in the federal investigation into billboard deals that former aides of Gov. McGreevey brokered.

Among the documents sought in the subpoenas are copies of oaths of office taken by Gary B. Taffet and Paul A. Levinsohn, two of McGreevey's top aides during his gubernatorial campaign, The Philadelphia Inquirer reported yesterday. Sources speaking on condition of anonymity said the subpoenas had been served.

Speaking to assembled reporters, McGreevey Press Secretary Baghdad Bob said the following, "Not only are all of the accusations wildly false, but my boss, Mr. McGreevey, is not Governor of New Jersey. Further, there is not, nor has there ever been, any state named 'New Jersey'"
