I personally think that the Project Varitas video is a letdown after they promised a bombshell. IINM, the person recorded is not from within the inner circle, and she doesn't necessarily have the authority to say what the administration will do. (The second person is definitely not in a position to know.)

I do think it's true that Murphy will impose mandates after the election, and it's evident that top Democrats *think* so too, though I don't think this specific video qualifies as a *bombshell*.

I may be wrong. As usual.

Murphy admins response to the video is hilarious though

I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

I disagree, I think it's something that many took for granted and didn't really think about what will happen after the election. IMO it will bring out many anti-mandates to vote. I also think it will flip votes, especially in Lakewood.

If they’re really victims of an ambush, why do the race and gender cards have to be played?

The video is clearly in an office the person speaking is clearly female. Is there anything true in the statement other than the campaign person being Latina?

Yes they were caught in the parking garage. But what were they caught about? They were just asked about their very own statements they made earlier where they admitted that the mandates are coming.

They need to remind Lakewood voters that they are not planning “blanket mandates” and therefore Murphy is worth a vote. However, be aware that targeted mandates or mandates with minor exclusions shall be expected

You'll be surprised how much Murphy cares about Lakewood's votes.

Murphy always waits for after elections to sign controversial bills.
He waited until Nov 4th last year to stupidly ban plastic bags.
So project veritas is definitely right, unfortunately.

I have no doubt that the sentiment behind the video is right, and that he very well may impose the mandate after the election. The actual video, however, has no reflection on him. The woman quoted has about as much to do with the administration as Avi Schnall, even less actually. She doesn't know what is really going on inside - she just wanted to pacify the reporter.

Final Monmouth poll gives Murphy an 11-point lead.

I personally think it's closer, but I don't think they are off by 11 points.

Sad day for NJ.

Emerson is not nearly as prestigious as Monmouth.

There is also a Rutgers Poll scheduled to be released tomorrow or Friday, but they don't have the track record of Monmouth either.
