BREAKING: A wave of new polling data reveals a stunning development in the New Jersey governor’s race—Republican candidate Jack Ciattarelli is now statistically tied with Democrat Mikie Sherrill, signaling a potential political earthquake in one of the bluest states in America.

According to recent surveys from top-rated pollsters including Trafalgar Group and InsiderAdvantage, the race has tightened dramatically in the final stretch, with independents breaking heavily toward the Republican side. The numbers suggest that if GOP turnout surges during early in-person voting, New Jersey could witness one of the biggest electoral upsets in decades.

“Look at what the Democrats do,” Ciattarelli said in a statement. “The fact that they’re sending Obama? They’re worried. Look at their actions.”

His campaign pointed to Democratic efforts to deploy national figures like former President Barack Obama as a sign of growing panic within the Sherrill camp. With voter frustration mounting over taxes, crime, and economic stagnation, Ciattarelli’s message of fiscal responsibility and local control is resonating strongly across suburban and working-class communities.

“Most of the polls show the independents breaking on the Republican side,” Ciattarelli added. “If that breaks the way we think it can, and Republicans can turn out big time, this could be the upset!”

Polling experts echo that sentiment, noting that credible firms with proven track records are all reporting a razor-thin margin, while less reliable pollsters continue to skew averages with outdated methodologies. “The pollsters that have good records like us—they all have this race extremely tight,” one analyst noted. “The ones that consistently fail are skewing the averages.”

The message from the Ciattarelli campaign is clear: the momentum is real, and every vote counts. “Republicans MUST step on the gas into November 4th with in-person early voting! MAKE IT HAPPEN!” read a statement urging supporters to mobilize in full force.

With enthusiasm on the rise and Democrats increasingly on the defensive, the New Jersey race has become a national focal point—a referendum on leadership, accountability, and the direction of the country under the Trump-era conservative resurgence.
