Guadagno and Murphy both got less than 50 percent of their respective Primaries. I have already voted by mail third party as I'm not satisfied with Guadagno or Murphy. Is this a common sentiment among your acquaintances? I voted in June for one of the losing candidates in the June primary and I'm dissapointed with the 2 major choices.

I'm leaning toward guadagno. She's socially liberal, prochoice, and does not seem trump crazy. Murphy is another goldman sachs dude. We already had one of those and did not turn out well.

Unless he comes with a great nj transit plan, i'm not going to vote for him. I have not heard from the independent candidates yet.

I'm holding my nose and voting for Kim. At least she's not Corzine 2.0.

I don't like either of them. The biggest issue facing NJ is its massive unfunded pension obligations and neither of them have proposed anything substantive to address that.

Can't get excited about either unfortunately.

I'll vote Guadagno because Murphy honestly believes he can tax NJ'ians into prosperity.

I believe Murphy will take the election.

Last two items on the menu...... I'll have a helping of ........


The clear choice has to be KG.


Murphy is deblasio part deux.


Murphy....Taxes and register all guns, both naieve pursuits, both accomplish nothing at the expense of the state residents pockets and lives.

yes, Kim is great, she was literally groomed for 8 years for the job yet can't put one coherent sentence together regarding any policy, can't present one detailed proposal anyone can make sense of, and who would be a continuation of an administration that polls lower than Hitler or Jason Vorhees. Not saying Murphy is great, but he's gotta be better than Kim G.

Additionally, the fact that Silent Kim's ads at this point consist solely of playing a tape of a reporter asking a question, followed by a tape of Murphy giving an answer to a completely different question, gives you an idea of the desperation of her campaign staff.

If she can't brag about her own...accomplishments (???)... as second in command to Governor Creosote, and instead relies on outright lies and obfuscation in her ads, what does that tell you about her actual qualifications?

And, then there is that nagging issue of how she gamed the state pension system for the benefit of one of her cronies when she was the Sheriff of Monmouth County. Governor Hindenberg shut that investigation down by promoting its chief investigator to the NJ Superior Court, but I have it on good authority that more than one community organization is petitioning the NJ courts to re-open the investigation into her unethical/illegal gaming of the state's pension system.

Guadagno by default. Anyone that openly says they are going to raise taxes and scare business and people away does not have my vote.
