Ciattarelli scores key Bergen County endorsements

Jack Ciattarelli enhanced his front runner status for the NJ GOP gubernatorial nomination on Friday with endorsements from 25 Republican leaders in Bergen County.

A successful businessman who retired early after selling his companies, Ciatarelli, has been working full time supporting Republican candidates throughout New Jersey for the past four years, the last year as a declared candidate for governor. His efforts are paying dividends in the pre-primary season before county nominating conventions.

“Over the past five years Jack Ciattarelli has been in Bergen County more times than I can count and has emphatically and consistently supported our local Republican candidates,” said BCRO District 40 and Wyckoff Municipal Chairwoman Drita McNamara. “Jack is a truth-teller and we always know where he stands. His plan to fix New Jersey will lead our party to victory in 2021. With Jack at the top of the ticket, Republicans will pick up seats in District 40 and throughout Bergen County.” 

“New Jersey is broken. We need Jack to lead us as our next Governor. He has fantastic vision and energy to lead us to victory in November. Jack has my unconditional support,” added BCRO District 39 and Park Ridge Municipal Chairman Steven Hopper.

BCRO Deputy Chair and recently re-elected Paramus Councilman Chris DiPiazza said, “Jack has been very supportive of me, my family and my candidacy over the past several years. Jack even rolled up his sleeves and knocked on doors alongside me this past October, which says a lot about his commitment to helping elect Republicans. I’m proud to support him for Governor.”

“With today’s endorsements, I am more motivated than ever to earn the support of the entire Bergen County Republican Organization and defeat the Bergen County Democrat Machine in November,” Ciattarelli said in welcoming the endorsements. “My message to Bergen County Republicans and Republicans across the State is simple: We can do this. Together, we can make sure Phil Murphy is ‘One and DONE in ’21’ and there are a lot more Republicans in office next year.”

Ciattarelli, a former Assemblyman, former Somerset County Freeholder, and former Raritan Councilman has announced endorsements from Atlantic, Burlington, Hunterdon, Morris, in addition to Bergen endorsements.

Ciattarelli has been all over the state attending county and municipal reorganizations supporting Republicans since the first of the year. He attended the Monmouth and Ocean County reorganizations on Thursday.
