Today in New Jersey, candidates Jack Ciattarelli and Mikie Sherrill stepped up efforts across the state in the last hours before the election. They held back-to-back public rallies to appeal to undecided voters and boost early turnout.
Officials report nearly 1.2 million ballots have been cast early, setting a record pace for this type of election in the state. Polling stations remained busy today, especially in suburban and urban districts.
Ciattarelli emphasized tax relief and stronger law enforcement in his speeches. Sherrill stressed investment in schools and public transit. Each urged supporters to “make their voice heard” before polls close tomorrow.
Campaign analysts say the narrow gap between the candidates underscores how much hinges on turnout. The state’s economy, infrastructure and education policies are all in play.
