The Ciattarelli-Gannon campaign wants some debates. Lots of them.
On Monday, the Republican ticket wrote to the New Jersey Election Law Enforcement Commission (NJ ELEC) asking for at least four gubernatorial debates and two lieutenant governor debates.
“Voters deserve candidates who do not duck the public and the press nor hide behind tens of millions of dollars in misleading attack ads by national organizations in Washington, D.C. or entrenched special interests in Trenton. These debates are critical to revealing those candidates,” explains the letter co-signed by Jack Ciattarelli and his new running mate, Morris County Sheriff Jim Gannon.
“We urge you – in the strongest possible terms – to approve and schedule more than the two gubernatorial debates and a single Lt. Governor’s debate required by law,” added the pair. “At a minimum, we are willing to double that number in both cases and begin as soon as possible to accommodate the more robust schedule. We are hopeful that Congresswoman Sherrill and Mr. Caldwell will agree.”
