Ciatterelli announced that he's running for governor again in four years. See the video above.

All this talk about the Vaad is ignoring the fact that this has been going on for YEARS. Christie also won Lakewood in a landslide despite the Vaad endorsement against him. That wasn't even the first time. We heard all of the exact same discussions then as now. More transparency, expanding their membership, etc. Yet the most there has been was a few token changes. It is unlikely that anyone is disturbed by this result in the slightest just like they never were in the past.

During McCarthy's 8.5 hour speech last night, he made a joke about Durr and Sweeney.

"We got good news and bad news out of New Jersey. Good news: a truck driver beat the most powerful politician, who happened to be a Democrat. Bad news: in the new Biden administration, we just lost another truck driver."

Well, at least they are being upfront about their approach this time.

In the marketing world, we call that damage control.

Not much damage control...this is their "deplorables" moment.
No personal opinion on the race or who to vote for, but why is it everyone else's fault that there was machlokes?

Anonymous whining about achdus in an angsty teen voice isn’t a great look but not surprising. Achdus with who exactly? And if the vast majority are voting with Ciaterelli, wouldn’t achdus necessitate voting for Jack?

So the redistricting map is in for Congressional seats. (State senate and assembly are done separately.)

Seems like Toms River will be moving into Chris Smith's district, as per what I've heard. Andy Kim, the Democrat who is Toms River's current Congressman, is getting a safer Democratic district, in an effort to protect him in the coming elections. Ironically, Smith's hometown of Hamilton is moving to Kim's district, and Smith already announced that he's going to move to remain in his district.

Statewide, Democrat Tom Malinowski was "sacrificed" by losing many Democrat parts of his district, which resulted in three other vulnerable districts (including Kim's) to become more securely Democrat. Malinowski is facing a rematch from Republican State Assembly leader Tom Kean, son of former NJ governor. Malinowski beat Kean last time by a tiny margin.

Isn't it a blessing in disguise for the Republicans, that al least they can change it from 10-2 to 9-3?
