Sherrill advocates for codifying abortion rights, expanding childcare and education access, and increasing healthcare transparency. She\u2019s backed by Gov. Phil Murphy, Sen. Cory Booker, Sen. Andy Kim, and several labor unions.<\/p>\n<p> Jack Ciattarelli  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/c107833-mcdn.mp.lura.live\/expiretime=2082787200\/fdb80619c507e45a3287c4c4da373d3e43b79de62e951d78a47d2f145a69c60f\/iupl\/69E\/75E\/69E75ED6A3B219F1BE7E2DB3EB73927F.jpg\" alt=\"Jack Ciattarelli pushes tax relief, energy reform in tight race with Mikie Sherrill\" class=\"sr-only\" data-v-7a5d4fdb=\"\"\/>   <\/p>\n<p data-v-6fc2855c=\"\">Jack Ciattarelli, a businessman and former state lawmaker, is the Republican nominee for New Jersey governor, making his third run for the office, this time against Democrat Mikie Sherrill.
