| This morning, Sue Altman released a new ad in the hypercompetitive Cook Political Report Toss-Up race for New Jersey’s 7th Congressional District.
The ad showcases law enforcement leaders who have decided to back Altman over incumbent Republican Congressman Tom Kean, Jr. – including Somerset County Sheriff Darrin Russo and Union County Sheriff Peter Corvelli – representing the two largest counties of NJ-07.
Rejecting Tom Kean, Jr.’s “dishonest attacks and lies,” these law enforcement leaders support Altman’s vision for comprehensive public safety – which includes fully funding police departments so they can invest in the training, recruitment, and equipment they need, standing against the rise of hate crimes and holding perpetrators accountable, and getting dangerous firearms off our streets to keep our communities safe.
Voters have the opportunity for new leadership they can trust and be proud of with Sue as their next Congresswoman.
“She’s got a plan to get us the resources we need,” said Sheriff Corvelli.
“She’s got a plan, backed by law enforcement like me, to get guns off the street and to keep our communities safe,” said Sheriff Russo.
Altman comes from a family of law enforcement, with both her uncle and great-grandfather serving in police departments on Long Island. Sue’s uncle, Detective (ret.) Craig Copius, is featured in the new ad. The candidate grew up in Clinton, and says she is dedicated to putting taxpayers, working people, and our communities ahead of partisan politics.
Tom Kean, Jr.’s hypocrisy on public safety is well-recorded. As a Christie ally in Trenton, Kean, Jr. voted for budget cuts that led to police layoffs across the state. Kean, Jr. voted for a Christie-backed pension reform bill that has left retired police officers without a cost-of-living adjustment since 2011. And in Congress, he voted for a radical budget that threatened massive cuts across the government, including to federal law enforcement agencies.
Kean, Jr. has made it his brand to dodge reporters and avoid questions, which has been noted on countless occasions. He shields himself from direct engagement with his constituents – many of whom are curious about his endorsement of Donald Trump on the same day the former President was indicted by a jury on 34 felony charges and his refusal to support a bipartisan bill to protect IVF access from extremist state legislatures.
Altman has made clear that lowering costs for working families, securing our reproductive rights and fundamental freedoms, keeping our communities safe, and fighting corruption on both sides of the aisle will be her top priorities as she looks to represent and fight for the people of NJ-07 in Washington. |
What the biased article fails to tell the readership is that the two (2) sheriffs mentioned in the article are both Democrats that run on the Democrat ticket.
All of things that the article attacks Kean for is based on Kean’s attempts to control budgets and government spending. What’s wrong with that???? Isn’t that what we send Republicans to Washington, D.C. to do??? Isn’t that what Kean was sent to do???
The article once again attempts to attack Trump for the 34 New York “felony charges” which inevitably will be overturned on appeal. Even all of the judges on the NY Appeals Division panel hearing Trump’s appeal on the $500 MILLION DOLLAR civil case verdict, are saying that the court and A.G. Letitia James have overreached.
All of the things that Altman says she’ll do were before the Biden Regime for almost 4 years and they did nothing about it. Once again, Democrat candidates like Altman give us platitudes and say nothing. They promise the world, but can’t or won’t deliver. They’ll vote 99-100% with the Regime. Altman won’t make the changes she says she will. She’ll fall in “lock-step” with the rest of the Democrat Nazi Party or risk losing her seat.
Signed by a coward who refused to give his real name so calls himself, “Thomas Jefferson.” This same coward refers to the Democratic Party as “The Democrat Nazi Party.” Sadly people like him have become the former Republican Party that at one time ran respectable candidates like Dwight D. Eisenhower and John McCain. Ignore his nonsense here.
When did blatant lying become the norm for the GOP
Oh wait that’s right it was back in 2015 when the Orange Jesus rode his golden escalator into our lives
I’m sick of hearing him and his minions calling our country a 3rd world nation Used to be a saying that went
America. Love it or leave it
If you idiots hate our country so much then take the Orange Messiah and go live with Putin
Regrut does not challenge any of Jefferson’s assertions of facts, but pathetically goes ad hominem against Jefferson. Democrats will be Democrats.
Just out of curiosity, I tried to google CD – 7 sheriffs? Couldn’t find a thing. I googled legitimate police departments endorsing Sue Altman and still couldn’t find a mention. CD-7 Sheriffs is not even a a legitimate group. Just made up for the sake of campaigning. Why the lying and deceit? If Sue Altman wants my vote, she needs to tell me the truth. No smoke and mirrors. It’s not OK. This is her ad that she endorsed. Stand up and tell me the truth.
Just out of curiosity, I tried to google CD – 7 sheriffs? Couldn’t find a thing. I googled legitimate police departments endorsing Sue Altman and still couldn’t find a mention. CD-7 Sheriffs is not a legitimate group. Just made up for the sake of campaigning. Just a few more seconds of research, I found it just two sheriffs and her uncle Craig that are endorsing her. Is this a real police endorsement? Technically, yes. But it seems more like smoke and mirrors. It’s not OK.
Then I googled police endorsements for Tom Kean Jr.. I found a whole slew of real police endorsements from NJ state troopers, national troopers, PBA, fraternal order, etc. Who is lying in their ad campaign?
