He also knocked doors in Paterson and Medford, and met with High School Dems in Lawrence Township.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>In response to the kick-off of early voting in New Jersey, <\/em><strong><em>DNC Chair Ken Martin released the following statement:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAs New Jerseyans head to the voting booth and cast their ballots, they know the contrast is crystal clear: Jack Ciattarelli and Republicans are fighting for Donald Trump and his billionaire backers, while Mikie Sherrill and Democrats up and down the ballot are fighting to lower their costs \u2014 including ending utility price hikes. That\u2019s why the DNC is all-in to support New Jersey Democrats, investing over $3 million to turbocharge on-the-ground organizing and direct voter contact. New Jersey families know the stakes of this election for their pocketbooks, health insurance, and freedoms. With the stakes so high, Rep. Mikie Sherrill will become the next Governor of New Jersey on November 4th.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>More Information About IWillVote.com<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IWillVote.com is the DNC\u2019s one-stop shop for voter education and information.
