Statement from the New Jersey Democratic State Committee Regarding Monmouth University Poll

TRENTON, N.J. — The New Jersey Democratic State Committee is releasing the following statement regarding the Monmouth University Poll released on February 12:

“It shouldn’t be a shock that Republicans and conservative-leaning unaffiliated voters are hardening their opposition to Governor Murphy given his steadfast support for policies that benefit working families and the middle class,” said NJDSC spokesman Phil Swibinski. “More significant is the Governor’s massive popularity and practically nonexistent negatives among New Jersey’s constantly growing Democratic electorate. Governor Murphy’s +56% favorability rating among Democrats in this poll and the strong support it shows for the landmark $15 Minimum Wage law that the Governor championed shows that his agenda is being well received by Democratic voters. The more Democrats learn about Governor Murphy, the more they like and that will continue as he keeps working to make the state stronger and fairer for everyone.”
