Lakewood: Jack Ciattarelli Announces Candidacy For NJ Governor
Jack Ciattarelli Announces Candidacy For New Jersey Governor again. Running for the 2025 Republican nomination. Lakewood Askunim and NJ Frum community leaders urging all newly eligible young voters to immediately register.

Former New Jersey Assemblyman and the 2021 Republican nominee for NJ governor Jack Ciattarelli officially kicked off his third run for the Republican gubernatorial nomination last night, at an event at the historic American Hotel in Freehold.
Speaking to a room full of supporters at the American Hotel, Ciattarelli promised to steer the state back from the progressive far-left radicals after two terms under a Democrat. The candidate pledged to follow through on what he’s proposed in his last two runs: Promote school choice, public safety, cutting taxes and pursue a constitutional amendment to put term limits on state lawmakers.
“Time to give a voice back to parents, time for a Governor that will support our police, time to get serious about cutting property taxes, time to make New Jersey a state that can compete and where every family can live their American Dream.”
In 2021, he nearly beat Democrat Governor Phil Murphy for Governor, losing by just 3% of the vote. He hopes to recapture his momentum from the past race to win this open election.

At this time it is to early to tell which direction Lakewood leadership will be supporting for the 2025 Governor, U.S. Senate (NJ), and other important local races. But regardless of who gets endorsed, Lakewood and New Jersey Askunim along with many frum community activists are strongly urging all newly eligible young voters that have not registered yet, to immediately register to vote so they can have a say in this crucial and important election which will directly affect our entire Kehilla.
FrumNews.com encourages all our New Jersey readers to register to vote ahead of the upcoming primary and general election

However much we all wanted frum friendly Jack Ciattarelli to win in 2021, The fact is that we did not have enough registered voters then to elect him. So practically speaking the Lakewood community leaders made the correct choice by not publicly backing him last time, almost most of our community did vote for him anyways.
But the general rule for Askunim is they either back who most likely will be the winner anyways, or they back a candidate that with our full communities votes can likely win.
Last election, however close the race was. It was not winnable and the Lakewood Vaad should be commended for doing the smart move.This time around it may be different, I dont know if we have enough votes to elect a frum friendly Republican.
But would like to point out that many frum households in Lakewood, Toms River, Jackson etc, which in 2021 their children were to young to vote, now their adult children will be of eligible voting age for the 2025 elections.And if they register to vote, our community can easily have many thousands more voters.
Another aspect, more people in the great state of New Jersey are leaning more towards the right with everything going on the past few years since Covid.
