Ridgewood NJ, today’s gubernatorial elections in Virginia and New Jersey are being widely interpreted by the media as a referendum on President Joe Biden’s popularity, but most voters don’t see it that way.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 36% of Likely U.S. Voters think the Virginia and New Jersey elections are more of a referendum on Biden, while 35% say the elections are more about local issues. Another 30% are not sure. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
Maybe a little bit.
I think that Gubernatorial races are different animals than Senate or Congressional races.
Gingrich had a comment today…

I think both democrats are assholes in their own right!
I think Murphy has lost touch with New Jersey, he labels people that don’t agree with him, could care less if high property taxes are crushing you and is turning NJ into a sanctuary state, if he hasn’t done so already. The Democratic party is a disgrace and it’s amazing how many people continue to support them. God help us.
” think Murphy has lost touch with New Jersey, “
Are you really that clueless?
Do you really think that Murphy was EVER in touch with New Jersey?
He has NEVER cared about (lowering) property taxes or keeping NJ from becoming a sanctuary state.
Murphy ran as a national candidate on social issues. NJ is not progressive. Don’t run on social justice.
DMV was bad. But now a nightmare
Unemployment office still has not cleared apps from last year.
NJ, Div of Pensions and benefits goes to voicemail for 12 months
Read the room. We want a functioning state government
Even if Murphy prevails (too close to call this morning) he should understand that the voters sent him a message.
Inviting Bellicose Bernie to stump for him 3 days before election tells me that Murphy is incredibly out of touch.
“NJ is not progressive”
Another laughable statement from the Ridgewood Clueless….
Even if Murphy prevails (too close to call this morning) he should understand that the voters sent him a message.
Murphy will not change 1 iota, even if he wins by ONE vote.
I guess Ridgewood voters really are RICH and STUPID
Moderate Republicans do well in NJ. Murphy came close to losing not because of his opponent but because of his social justice agenda. We already support several low tax southern states and are not looking to add money burning programs.
Nj does not support progressive candidates. The National Progressive Caucus is not represented here.
The response above is an insult but not a debatable fact. No more ad hominem Responses. Intelligent responses only. Let’s elevate the conversation.
Makes me giggle a little bit….

“Do you really think that Murphy was EVER in touch with New Jersey?”
Even the Dems know it.
