In the race for New Jersey governor, Donald Trump’s endorsement is seen as a potential game-changer in the Republican primary according to experts. However, in a traditionally Democratic state, Trump’s endorsement could complicate things in a general election. Despite this, many Republican candidates are seeking his support, with recent meetings and endorsements from the former president. The narrowing voting margin between 2020 and 2024 suggests that some voters may be swayed by Trump’s leadership. The GOP field has recently shrunk to four candidates, with tensions between Trump supporters and “never Trumpers” becoming more pronounced. Some candidates, like Mario Kranjac, are positioning themselves as the most Trump-aligned, highlighting the importance of maintaining fixed values and beliefs in the current political landscape. While Republicans in New Jersey have not won a U.S. Senate seat in over five decades, the party has fared better in governor’s races. The GOP has made gains in voter registration, potentially eroding the Democrats’ traditional advantage in the state. The influence of Trump remains a key factor in shaping Republican strategies and political calculations in the lead-up to the June 10 primary and beyond.
