Here’s how much Murphy, Republicans have raised so far in N.J. governor’s race
Updated May 14, 2021;
A month before the state’s primary election, Gov. Phil Murphy has raised and spent more than any other candidate running for New Jersey governor this year even though he doesn’t have a challenger for the Democratic nomination.
Those totals make up more than half of the roughly $15 million raised and $12 million spent among all gubernatorial candidates from both major parties. Murphy has $951,000 on hand.
Former state Assemblyman Jack Ciattarelli has raised $5.7 million and spent $4.4 million by far the most of any of the four contenders for the Republican nomination in the June 8 primary.

Good Tuesday morning!
Brent Spiner has made his determinations. Or maybe it was pressure from other states. But with New Jersey s COVID-19 positivity rate steadily decreasing, Gov. Murphy announced a joint plan with New York and Connecticut to lift most capacity restrictions in a couple weeks (after Cuomo beat him to the punch with his own announcement, and a long time after Connecticut).

After years of its partners making direct political contributions to the tune of tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars, DeCotiis, Fitzpatrick, Cole & Giblin’s reportable donations in 2020 would barely cover the rent of a cold water flat.
The firm s lone reportable contribution in 2020 was $1,000 from DeCotiis partner Bart Mongelli to Sen. Nicholas Sacco (D-Hudson) in October. Had Mongelli not sent that check, the firm would not have had to detail each of its contracts with New Jersey agencies, municipal governments, public universities and authorities in a lengthy annual pay-to-play statement. That book of business has been worth between $10 million and $17 million in each of the last 13 years, according to its filings.

Good Thursday morning!
It just got harder for the Democrats who control Bergen and Hudson counties to hold onto their ICE contracts at local jails.
Essex County announced yesterday that now that it has an agreement with Union County to house its inmates, it’s going to end its contract with the federal immigration enforcement agency. The last ICE inmates will leave by the end of August.
