Trenton, NJ – President Donald Trump implored the voters of New Jersey primary on Monday for the Governor to support Republican Jack Ciattarelli when first -person vote begins on Tuesday and said the state was ready for a change after years of democratic control.
The president, who has golf clubs in the state and often remains on his property in Bedminster, announced his approval for Ciattarelli last month.
Trump organized a telephone rally for the candidate on Monday, a former state legislator who transformed a critic into a vocal contributor to the president. The telephone call lasted approximately 10 minutes, the president saying that the voters will decide whether New Jersey remains a “sanctuary state with high taxation and high crime”.
“New Jersey is ready to get out of this blue horror show and really enter it and vote for someone who will make things happen,” said the president.
Trump’s call for early vote echoed the field he made to voters during the 2024 presidential election.
Ciattarelli said that his first decree if it were elected would be to end the sanctuary policies for immigrants in the country illegally. Currently, the attorney general of the State has ordered local police not to help federal agents in terms of civil immigration.
There is no legal definition for the policies of the city of the sanctuary, but they generally limit cooperation by local police with federal immigration agents.
Ciattarelli also said that the Attorney General he calls if he wins would not accept prosecution against the White House. The current prosecutor general of New Jersey has continued several high -level challenges on the agenda, including a case contesting the order of Trump calling at the end of the citizenship of the birth law.
Ciattarelli presents himself against former radio host Bill Spadea, state senator Jon Bramnick, the former mayor of Englewood Mario Kranjac cliffs and an entrepreneur from the New Jersey named Justin Barbera.
Early vote in person begins Tuesday and takes place until Sunday. The primary day is June 10, although voters have been sending ballots by mail since the end of April.
Although the primary is not over, Ciattarelli hinted at the attacks on its possible Democratic Challenger in the general elections, claiming that the eight years of the party in the post of governor and more than two decades of power in the Legislative Assembly were a failure.
The democratic field is not settled. There is a six competition between the representatives. Josh Gottheimer and Mikie Sherrill; The Mayors Ras Baraka from Newark and Steven Fulop by Jersey City; The former president of the State Senate Steve Sweeney; And the president of the Syndicat des Teachers Sean Spiller.
New Jersey tilted democrats in the presidential elections and the Senate in particular, and the party has an advantage of around 800,000 voters on the Republicans. But the self -employed also constitute an important block, and voters have tended to alternate between democratic and republican administrations for the governor.
