Jack Ciattarelli

The Republican frontrunner for governor in 2025 has separated from his wife.

The next gubernatorial election in New Jersey doesn’t take place for another three years but one candidate is already raising money and public awareness, trying to make sure you don’t forget about him.

Nearly one of every seven municipalities switched their party allegiance in this year’s gubernatorial election, mostly in the GOP's direction.

Final election results have been certified, detailing the math behind Gov. Phil Murphy’s 3-point win – and where the ‘red wave’ was highest that nearly carried Jack Ciattarelli to a surprise win.

Jack Ciattarelli probably won’t be the only Republican who ran for governor in 2021 to reprise the role in 2025.

The only chance we had to get rid of a governor many have called a tyrant and a criminal is over. We will now have the same Gov. Murphy for the next four years.

A person connected to the Ciattarelli campaign confirmed the candidate will concede this afternoon and will stress that the election was conducted fairly, all votes were counted and there was no fraud.

Republican nominee Jack Ciattarelli criticized Gov. Phil Murphy over the reforms, and it seems to have benefited him, though not by enough to deliver a victory.

Gov. Phil Murphy's campaign says it's impossible at this point for Jack Ciattarelli to win and not conceding is "an assault on the integrity of our elections.”

The latest unofficial results show Gov. Phil Murphy ahead of Republican challenger Jack Ciattarelli by 56,624 votes or 2.26%. Murphy is at 50.7% to Ciattarelli’s 48.5%.
