Sure, I don't think it's a given that a Republican administration will fix things. However, they at least pretend to be interested in making the kind of changes that would help.

Yeah. Not beholden to anybody. Sure.
I didn't write that they weren't beholden to anybody, only that they are not beholden to interests that are bankrupting the state. For the most part, the interests throwing their weight behind the NJ republicans are the "evil corporations" and "the rich" (e.g. tax payers), whereas the democrats are largely supported by government employees and "the poor" (e.g. net recipients of tax dollars). So it's pretty clear that the Democrats aren't going to be very effective advocates for the tax payer.

Its time for New Jersey to join the ranks of highly educated, wealthy, phenomenal public school systems, & low taxes states like- Mississippi, Alabama, South Carolina, Idaho, North Dakota etc.

There's a reason these states produce the most highly talented students in the nation. There's a reason the Most Highly educated Americans move in the millions to Red country, real republican pride like Mississippi, Alabama & South Carolina! Low Taxes, Cheap living! Freedom, Guns !

Either lets elect a republican for NJ or lets all say goodbye to All these Liberal filled states of NJ,NY,CA,MA,VT,WA etc etc!!

I want my children to grow up in a Low Property Tax, Low Income Tax environment

Its time for change !!!!

I want my state of NJ to be like these red states who keep voting year after year, decade after decade for Republicans. Conservative, patriotic, fiscal responsible, pro-education, No New Taxes governors from states like Missisippi, Alabama, South Carolina, Idaho, North Dakota.

Its time for Change !
Last time I remembered the governor of California was Republican and look at what's going on with that state. You don't know what you're talking about.

Most of the Republican states either have quality of life problems or they have a small population because they're 60% mountains, 30% living area.
