A state that has voted overwhelmingly for Democrats for decades is now on the verge of flipping red or, at a minimum, fading from deep blue to deep purple.
The New Jersey Republican Party shared polling results Monday that are likely to unsettle Democrats concerned about their hold on power in the state. According to the poll, just 33 percent of New Jersey residents believe the state is on the “right track” under Democratic leadership.
Meanwhile, 54 percent say the state is headed in the “wrong direction.” The GOP’s statement suggested that these numbers reflect growing public dissatisfaction and pointed to recent gubernatorial polling as a sign that New Jersey could be poised for a political shift in upcoming elections.
