Rutgers Poll: NJ voters unconvinced of ‘Jersey Comeback’
It seems state residents aren’t buying the New Jersey comeback, despite long running efforts by the governor to convince voters it is alive and well.
According to a new Rutgers- Eagleton poll, more than two thirds of New Jersey residents believe Gov. Chris Christie has overhyped the “comeback,” while less than a third believe the governor’s narrative.
The numbers break heavily along party lines with 56 percent of Republicans believing in the comeback, joined by 29 percent of independents and just 12 percent of Democrats.
The soft support for the comeback storyline has not hurt Christie as 48 percent of registered voters say the state is headed in the right direction and 47 percent say he deserves another term, versus 46 percent say it’s time for someone new. (Staff, PolitickerNJ)
