In New Jersey, it’s a businessman versus a girlboss in a pantsuit.
Sound familliar?
NJ can vote for a competent executive or a trainwreck girlboss in a pantsuit.
Stark contrast. https://t.co/jAdOsd7Ig8

The Democrat, Congresswoman Mikie Sherill, is being outright accused of corruption for trading military stocks as she served on the Housed Armed Services Committee.
Eric Daugherty:
Trump-endorsed NJ governor candidate Jack Ciattarelli DECIMATES Mikie Sherrill (D) in the debate, brings up her Naval Academy cheating scandal AND insider stock trading
“I got to WALK at my college graduation – and I’ve NEVER broken the law.”
“She had to pay federal FINES for breaking federal LAW on stock trades and stock reporting – and the NYT reports was trading defense stocks while sitting on the House Armed Services Committee!”

Sherrill attacked Charlie Kirk:
Leaders calm tensions — they don’t inflame them. Mikie voted yes on a resolution honoring Charlie Kirk, then turned around and attacked Kirk to appease her extreme base. That’s not courage. It’s politics at its worst. pic.twitter.com/jMCuEZJDOR

More highlights:
Mikie Sherrill is hiding her Naval Academy disciplinary records.
Just like she hid her stock trades in Congress.

The New York Post wrote it up:
The gloves came off during the second New Jersey gubernatorial debate Wednesday night, with Republican Jack Ciattarelli and US Rep. Mikie Sherrill (D-NJ) exchanging personal digs — with Sherrill trying to blame her opponent for contributing to the opioid crisis and Ciattarelli targeting the congresswoman’s Naval Academy record.
Sherrill came into the final debate of the campaign on the back foot after the race dramatically tightened — Ciattarelli cutting a near-double-digit polling lead for Sherrill down to 3.3 points. Some polls show the candidates neck and neck.
