NJ-GOV: New poll shows a six-point lead for Sherrill in N.J. governor's race [View all]

n the race for governor of New Jersey, Democrat Mikie Sherrill has a six-point lead over Republican Jack Ciattarelli, according to a StimSight Research poll conducted for InsiderNJ.

The poll shows Sherril ahead, 48%-42%, among probable voters.

The poll is consistent with one released last week by Fairleigh Dickinson University that had Sherrill up, 45%-37% and the latest data point in a race that is widely viewed as competitive. The sampling of a Rutgers-Eagleton poll conducted in June, showing Sherrill with a 20-point lead, has been largely debunked.

While the StimSight Research’s Patrick Murray is a veteran pollster, the group that commissioned the survey, InsiderNJ, is owned by Democratic National Committeeman John F.X. Graham, a top fundraiser and bundler for the Sherrill campaign.
