Republican gubernatorial candidate Jack Ciattarelli made a campaign stop at the Rabbinical College of America – Lubavitch in Morristown, where he outlined proposals to make New Jersey “safer and more affordable” for families, while accusing his Democratic opponent of siding with a controversial figure he labeled “antisemitic.”
During his visit to the yeshiva, Ciattarelli emphasized three pillars of his platform:
-
Tax Relief: “Cutting taxes” for middle-class families and small businesses, he said, would help ease the state’s high cost of living.
-
School Choice: Ciattarelli vowed to expand educational options for parents, including support for charter schools and vouchers for students in underperforming districts.
-
Combating Antisemitism: He pledged to partner with local law enforcement and community leaders to address rising anti-Jewish hate crimes.
“It was my privilege to visit the Rabbinical College of America — Lubavitch to talk about my plans to make New Jersey a safer and more affordable place to live for all families,” Ciattarelli said in a post on social media. “That means cutting taxes, providing school choice & fighting hateful antisemitism.”
In a pointed critique of his Democratic rival, Mikie Sherrill, Ciattarelli accused her of endorsing “socialist @zohrankmamdani and his antisemitic track record.” Zohran Mamdani is the newly minted Democratic nominee for New York City mayor, known for his radical socialist/Marxist views and support for the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel.
“My opponent — she’s sticking with her endorsement of socialist Zohran Mamdani and his anti-Semitic track record. It’s time for a change,” Ciattarelli added.


Morristown is not Lakewood, nor is it affiliated with Lakewood so why is this on LakewoodAlerts?
calm down, kol Yisoel Chaveirim!
But this isn’t Jewish world alerts or Kol Yisrael Alerts. It is Lakewood Alerts. There are many things that happen to Kol Yisrael that aren’t reported here. so why is this special to be reported here?
