Jack Ciattarelli, backed by Trump's endorsement, won the Republican gubernatorial nomination in New Jersey, defeating two opponents. Known for previous campaigns and a recent near-win against the current Democratic governor, Ciattarelli aims to shift New Jersey's political landscape. His transformation from a moderate lawmaker to a far-right candidate reflects broader trends in the GOP, particularly in view of increasing party loyalty to Trump. With the Democratic primary result pending, Ciattarelli prepares for a competitive gubernatorial race in November.
Mr. Ciattarelli's significant endorsement from Trump aims to flip New Jersey red after years of Democratic governance, marking a strategic shift in his political approach.
After narrowly losing to Gov. Murphy in 2021, Ciattarelli aims once again for the gubernatorial seat, demonstrating resilience and a commitment to his political ambitions.
