This is what America said to you and those who agree with you in the elections of 2010, 2014, and 2016. You are just struggling to hang onto reality.
I hope you realize those "blue" areas are generally the major population centers while the big swaths of "red" are the rural sticks and low density suburbs.
Murphy ran on a campaign of increasing NJ taxes by 1.4 billion dollars. Makes sense to me, when you run out of money, just raise taxes. The voters approved that plan, what's the problem?
The problem is the voters who voted him probably don’t pay tax.
I am sure if he proposed A fair tax such as raising sales tax, he would be voting in.
So what? Christi 2.0 doesn't get a chance to screw it up some more.
That attitude keeps NJ in a constanrt state of economic disaster. Example of being played by the media and politicians. don't let your puppet strings get tangled while casting your next vote.
So, you actually believe that 56% of the people who voted in our most recent gubernatorial election pay no taxes?
Incidentally, he wasvoted in, in case you haven't kept-up with recent events.
Why is that so hard to believe? Roughly 50% of Americans pay little to no income tax. Murphy got 1.1 million votes out of the state population of 9 million. That is well under 50% of the state population.
I would say that a very large percentage of his voters do not pay much if any income taxes.

And the rest are school teachers, and other public sector, union employees that benefit from the high salaries, benefits, and out of control GOVERNMENT PENSIONS.
