Not a major Jersey Boys newsflash, but still kind of interesting. The Associated Press is asking the candidates a series of questions about their personal tastes, habits and backgrounds. The latest question, “What was your last music purchase?” had some surprising responses from the candidates. Check out which candidate is into the Jersey Boys Original Cast Recording!
