Reply to comment by driftingwood2018 in What's controversial about a Governor Fulop? by The_Idealist_Realist

I disagree. I work with a few right leaning individuals and they are all pro Fulop. He's pro business and that's enough to get the vote for a lot of people.

You should talk to the people in Monmouth and Ocean county. And then look at the split in Bergen county between Democrat/Republican vote counts in last election. 52% Dem and 47% Rep in Bergen county. Not exactly the strongest Democratic numbers you’d expect.

Up until recently, Bergen county was a republican stronghold. And Monmouth/Ocean County almost always goes red. Here we have a candidate that socially is progressive while still fiscally moderate. That may be enough for some to swing over party lines. That's just my opinion though.
