NJ-GOV: Sherrill still holds 52%-45% lead over Ciattarelli in FDU poll
Despite the millions of dollars that have been spent and the personal and political attacks that have been lobbed on both sides over the last three months, a new poll from Fairleigh Dickinson University finds that Democrat Mikie Sherrill’s lead over Republican Jack Ciattarelli in New Jersey’s gubernatorial race has remained essentially unchanged.
In FDU’s poll released this morning, Sherrill, a congresswoman from Montclair, leads Ciattarelli, a former assemblyman from Somerville, by a seven-point, 52% to 45% margin among likely voters.
When FDU last looked at the race in July, the result was almost exactly the same, though some undecided voters have since flocked to one candidate or another; the July poll put Sherrill up by eight points, 45% to 37%.
“So far, this race is going exactly as expected,” Dan Cassino, the FDU poll’s executive director, said in a release accompanying the poll. “Undecided voters have almost all made up their minds, and partisans have put aside any misgivings and lined up behind their candidates.”
