Former President Donald Trump continues to cast a shadow over the New Jersey contest. The Rutgers-Eagleton poll found that 52 percent of voters saw Trump as a “major factor” in their decision—including 78 percent of Democrats, 38 percent of Republicans, and 42 percent of independents.
On the first day of early in-person voting in New Jersey, and with U.S. Rep. Mikie Sherrill, the Democratic gubernatorial candidate, showing a slim polling edge over her Republican opponent, Democrats called in the popular governor from neighboring Pennsylvania to drum up some enthusiasm among Garden State voters.
During a telerally for Republican nominee Jack Ciattarelli, the president also said he'd be campaigning for him.
Rep. Mikie Sherrill, the fourth-term Democratic congresswoman from Montclair, is the Democratic Party candidate for New Jersey governor.
