Phil Murphy vs. Jack Ciattarelli: Is the New Jersey governor race as predictable as it seems?
from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy
New Jersey is one of only two states electing a governor this year. Governor Phil Murphy is up for a second term, facing Republican Jack Ciattarelli. There hasn't been a lot of talk about this race, so we wanted to see what's going on. We caught up with John Weingart, Associate Director of the Eagleton Institute of Politics at Rutgers University, who tells us that Governor Murphy is expected to win, but there are a few things that could potentially derail him. We also talked about where Phil Murphy might go in the future if he is re-elected, and what implications this race could have in the 2022 midterm election.
