A handful of other candidates also submitted offers for republican basic ones, but has not yet shown clear paths to victory.
Here are some key take -out debates, which was the host of New Jersey Globe, New Jersey and Rider University:
Not the same “kumbaya” as the democrats
Tone The GOP debate differed significantly from the democratic debate on Sunday evening.
New Jersey Globe editor David Wildstein, one of the moderators, said: “We won’t get a kumbaya today, which we got on Sunday” and called the Sunday democratic debate “The Cicha Night”. Moderators fought to tame candidates who often talked about themselves and sometimes decided to determine the priorities related to attack and defense against answering questions.
Ciattarelli noted a website dedicated to attacking falls all night, and fell laughed at Ciattarelli. Fatea called Ciattarelli a “professional politician,” and Ciattarelli called a “professional liar.”
Durr said Bramnick’s vote in 2022 For the Democratic Prosecutor General Matt Platkin confirmation of the Senate He should “disqualify” him from the Debate scene, and Bramnick said that Durr lost his place in the Senate after one term, because his “judgment was bad.”
When Durr said he was here for people, not a plant like you, “Brampnick stabbed Durra for losing re -election. “You were not here for voters, voters told you to take part in the journey,” said Bramnick.
While some democrats made some nameless stabs about the votes of opponents on Sunday evening, they were largely hearty.
But on Tuesday, the knives came out and they were never put away.

Loyalty to Trump
Ciattarelli and Spread fought for who was more loyal to Trump during the debate.
“As for Bill, when he does not lie about me or destroy Donald Trump, he is someone who refers to the moderate wing of our party as Rinos [Republicans in name only]”Said Ciattarelli in his opening statement.
This energy lasted between them during the debate, accusing themselves of supporting politicians against Trump in the past and sharing the views that were contrary to the president.
“At least Jon Bramnick, when he follows Trump … he is sincere, unlike Jacek Ciattarelli, who is a liar,” said Spread in his closed statement.
Bramnick showed that he was not afraid to speak against Trump, and the audience did not like it live.
He met with Boos and complaining with crowd When he mentioned Attack of Capitol on January 6 said that he did not support the President’s common pardon for riots, including those who attacked police officers.
“Either we are a party to law and order, or not,” said Bramnick. “… I will stand with police officers every time.”
Misunderstandings regarding referendums, including abortion
Bramnick was the only candidate to say that he would support a referendum on the constitutional protection of the right to abortion.
Fall and Durr said they would not support one because they think that the state of abortion is above all too extreme.
Spread advertised the recommendations of the state and the federal right to life and said that the state should support “Pregnancy resource centers”.
Ciattarelli said he was supporting the right to choose, but also expressed support for the invoice that would limit abortion after five months of pregnancy, with the exceptions, and said that he believes that parents should be notified if their child receives an abortion. He did not answer whether he was supporting the referendum in abortion.
To put it more, Bramnick said that the referendum and initiatives are the only way to “voice of society can only be heard” because the legislator has long been controlled by Democrats.
Ciattarelli said that he would specially support the initiatives and referendum on the state formula of school financing and an inexpensive housing mandate, if the Republicans do not get most in Trenton.
Fatea said that he did not support initiatives and referendums, because “they were almost always a tool of outside people, elites, professional politicians to get more of our taxpayers.”
Different reactions to dealing with the future crisis of public health
Asked how they would prevent the spread of the future crisis of epidemic or public health, Brampnick said that he would bring experts and scientists of infectious diseases, and does not make decisions based on “someone on the Internet”.
But he also condemned Murphy for further extension of the Covid-19 emergency without a public opinion or legislator.
“When you perform a state of emergency, you must have a public contribution,” said Bramnick. “It was a grave failure.”
Ciattarelli said that as a governor he would hit “balance between public security and maintaining things as open as possible, so that we would not hurt our economy”, and said that he is “live and live live guy”, in the conditions of this or whether People want to wear a mask or vaccinate.
Fatea took a more aggressive approach against vaccinations and said that he would provide retroactive salary and restore people who did not “surrender to the tyranny masks and forced stab.”
Durr said that “it would allow people to decide what is best for them.”
Eyes for the freedom of reading
Other candidates gave Bramnicka Heat to vote to support the Act on freedom of reading, the latest law, which requires school boards and public library managing bodies in order to determine the principles of library materials to prevent arbitrary prohibitions of books, including a system of review of problems.
According to the law, the books can be assessed if the material is considered to be improper, but they cannot be prohibited from the author’s views. The law also protects librarians from legal proceedings to apply the guidelines of law. Bramnick was the only Republican in the state Senate vote for it.
“We had a wild west before,” said Bramnick. “There were no rules.”
Durr claimed that the law allows librarians to “provide children with pornography”, and Bramnick told him that he should read the bill, not just the title.
Ciattarelli said that the only public employees who should be legally Immunological are policemen. Spread said that he would veto the law as a governor and that he would defend parents who believe that their students were shown pornography.
