1,000+ rally for Ciattarelli in Dumont, a Bergen town carried twice by Murphy

He’s got the momentum, Save Jerseyans.

That much can’t be denied.

One week after 2,000+ gathered in North Wildwood and mere days after 500+ swarmed a Saddle River diner, Republican nominee Jack Ciattarelli pulled another relatively massive crowd on Sunday in the Bergen County municipality of Dumont. Observers estimated over 1,000 in attendance as Ciattarelli and other speakers including Jack Posobiec rallied the masses ahead of a critical in-person voting period which begins next Saturday. Select polling stations will begin accepting early in-person voters between Saturday, October 25th and Sunday, November 2nd ahead of the November 4, 2025 General Election Date.

Dumont is a bit of a bellwether.

It’s voted with the statewide winner of the New Jersey gubernatorial election at least since 2005. In 2021, Jack Ciattarelli pulled 2,600 votes (47.18%) out of Dumont to Phil Murphy’s 2,881 (52.28%), a relatively narrow loss in an ultimately close election which saw Ciattarelli lose statewide by just 3 points.

Murphy won here in 2017, reflective of his statewide landslide over then-LG Kim Guadagno.

Christie won Dumont twice – by a slim margin in 2009 and with 60%+ of the vote in 2013, both wins (again) roughly mirroring his statewide margins of victory.
