The governor’s race in New Jersey is within reach for Republican candidate Jack Ciattarelli, according to Scott Presler from Early Vote Action, who emphasized the necessity of a high voter turnout during a conversation on – News Saturday.
Presler discussed the contest between Republican Jack Ciattarelli and Democrat Rep. Mikie Sherrill, insisting it’s entirely “winnable” for the Republicans. He highlighted the fact that in 2021, the margin was just 84,000 votes.
“Are you aware, Matt, of how many Republicans didn’t participate in the 2021 election, following 2020? That figure is 600,000,” Presler stated. “And the election came down to just 84,000 votes. There are 250,000 gun owners in New Jersey not registered to vote. If our enthusiastic Second Amendment supporters registered and voted, New Jersey could be a Republican-dominated state,” Presler explained, providing additional context.
Presler remarked that high property taxes are pushing residents out of New Jersey, many of whom had previously moved from New York to avoid progressive policies. Now, however, they are facing financial strain in New Jersey as well, due to continued poor Democratic legislation.
Presler also pointed to electricity prices, noting, “Democrats don’t believe in ‘all of the above’ approach to energy, like Republicans do.”
“Republicans aim to lower property taxes and electricity expenses, combined with New Jersey’s status as a sanctuary state, and compounded by Donald Trump’s significant support nationwide — Americans voiced their desire for law and order. They want ICE to detain and deport criminal illegal immigrants, which isn’t happening under the Trenton Democrats and figures like Mikie Sherrill, who opposed the Laken Riley Act,” he remarked, pointing out the widespread corruption, as Sherrill “can’t justify her $7 million earnings while serving in Congress.”
“What is Mikie Sherrill contemplating, not being forthright about her inability to graduate with her class from the Naval Academy? And if we speak of integrity, why isn’t Mikie Sherrill being transparent about that controversy? This contest is genuinely neck and neck, a 50/50 situation,” he stated. “Jack Ciattarelli could very well become the next governor, but a strong voter turnout is crucial.”
Presler pleaded with New Jersey voters to vote — whether in person or by mailing in their ballot.
“Drop it off to your local county elections office. You can turn it in in person, and if you are vehemently opposed to mail-in voting, I ask you right now you mark on your calendars October 25,” he said. “October 25 you vote early in person. In New Jersey, you have nine days of early in-person voting from October 25 through November 2.”
“If you do in-person early voting, we can stop anything bad from happening on election day, like machines having errors or running out of paper or bad weather or just something going wrong. Don’t let this election be taken from you. I need you to vote early in person for Jack Ciattarelli,” he continued, urging voters to vote Republican down the ballot so that Ciattarelli will be able to get things done legislatively, including lowering electricity prices and property taxes.

Presler later added, “Every single vote is going to count, and the fact that Republicans are having a higher percentage return rate on mail-in ballots truly is unprecedented, comparative even to 2021.”
“I’m telling you, this race is winnable,” he added.
