Republican Jack Ciattarelli’s supporters are more fired up about voting for him to be New Jersey governor than Rep. Mikie Sherrill’s backers are for her, a new poll found.
A firm 91% of likely Ciattarelli voters are enthusiastic about him, compared to 86% for Sherrill (D-NJ), according to a Quinnipiac University poll .
Despite that enthusiasm gap, Sherrill is still leading Ciatterlli 50% to 44% among likely Garden State voters, just over two weeks out from Election Day, the survey showed.
