New Jersey Governor Race
Blue New Jersey is expecting a very close race for governor this November.
President Trump and former President Obama have endorsed the two candidates locked in a tight race for New Jersey governor, Republican Jack Ciattarelli and Democrat Mikie Sherrill.
- Republican candidate: Jack Ciattarelli, a longtime New Jersey politician and small business owner
- Democrat candidate: Mikie Sherrill, a former Navy pilot first elected to Congress in 2018
In the closing weeks, both candidates have hurled increasingly personal attacks against one another and received endorsements from some of the biggest names in their parties.
President Trump, who endorsed Ciattarelli earlier this year, is planning to host tele-rallies for the Republican contender, Axios reported.
