Ciattarelli Drives Final Bus Tour Across New Jersey Ahead November Election

Republican Jack Ciattarelli is actively campaigning across New Jersey in his bid for governor, emphasizing key state issues like taxes, housing, education, and public safety. He criticizes his Democratic opponent, Rep. Mikie Sherrill, labeling her an "aggressive liberal" and "Murphy 2.0," and promises to reverse policies such as sanctuary city status and to lower taxes. Ciattarelli is confident about Election Day outcomes, highlighting his connection to New Jersey as a "Jersey guy" ready to bring change. Meanwhile, Sherrill has focused on linking the race to national Democratic priorities, rallying with prominent figures including former President Barack Obama, framing the election as crucial for the nation’s future. Despite Sherrill's efforts to energize voters with national endorsements, Ciattarelli dismisses outside influence in favor of grassroots campaigning. The race is highly competitive and seen as pivotal for New Jersey's direction under term-limited Governor Phil Murphy's successor.
