On June 21, Fairleigh Dickinson University Polls released a poll for the November 2021 New Jersey gubernatorial race. The results: Democratic 48%, Republican 33%, “someone else” 4%; don’t know or won’t vote 14%. See this story.
The poll did not tell the respondents the identity of the other candidates on the ballot. They are the nominees of the Libertarian, Green, and Socialist Workers Parties. Thanks to PoliticalWire for the news.
I’m in the 14% won’t vote because I’m done with LP, and I refuse to vote for any of the other parties.
You were never a real libertarian to begin with.

@Eddie… Cute…. I’m a fucking Minarchist; asshat (actually, I flip between AnCap and Minarchist).
Here’s some of my stances:
– Get government out of marriage
– Legalize Gambling, Prostitution, and ALL drugs
– Abolish Minimum Wage
– End All Taxation
– Abolish the Federal Reserve, FDA, Department of Education, Department of Transportation, NSA, TSA, DHS, FBI, CIA, ATF, really just abolish 90% of the federal and state governments; only keep the Navy, Air Force, and State Department.
– Open Borders 100%
– Genuine Free Trade doesn’t need trade agreements (If I want to buy something from somebody in Germany, I don’t need the government to prearrange an agreement for me, I just buy something from somebody in Germany.
– Pro-Choice until last trimester
– Stand down the federal military to only the Navy and Air Force. The federal Army and Marines need to go away, and be handled via their constitutional means; i.e, the state militias and the Governors there of being responsible for them. The army/marines (state militias) would only be nationalized and under control of the president AFTER congress declares war.
Socially Liberal, Fiscally Conservative, Economically Liberal (Another way of saying Capitalism)
CONTINUTED:
A Federal government acting constitutionally is supposed to be an agreement among the several states that is nothing more than a mutual defense agreement. That’s why nearly ALL of the enumerated powers have to do with the military.
(And I’m not including the “General Welfare Clause” as an enumerated power because that only become a “clause” after a Supreme Court decision in the 30s (that legitimized the unconstitutional Social Security program) making the “General Welfare Clause” an “enumerated power”. Anybody with the least bit of a brain can comprehend that the paragraph before the enumerated powers is a summary of the enumerated powers. If the founders genuinely meant that congress can do whatever it wants (effectively what “general welfare” means) then why list enumerated power at all?
“But how will the objection be slanted when the issues alluded to in general terms are specifically mentioned immediately following the clause, not even separated by a longer pause than a semicolon? If different parts of the Constitution are magnified in this way, adding meanings everywhere it is possible, should the pertinent part of a sentence be excluded while keeping all the more doubtful and ambiguous terms? Why would specific powers be enumerated, if they were meant to be included in the preceding general power?
Nothing is more natural than to first use a general phrase and then to explain and qualify it by a recital of particulars. But the idea of enumerating specifics that neither explain nor qualify the general meaning and can have no other effect than to confuse and mislead is absurd. Since we are reduced to the dilemma of charging this absurdity on either the authors of the objection or the authors of the Constitution, we must take the liberty of guessing it didn’t originate with the latter. – Federalist Papers #41”
Unfortunately, the Federalist were wrong, and indeed the constitution was interpreted by the courts to ignore their very conviction that it would ever be read to mean anything different. The Anti-Federalists (historical libertarians aka liberals aka Democratic-Republicans) were correct.
So yeah, I guess I’m not a “real libertarian” (if you say so, because you’re the arbiter of what is and isn’t)….. regardless, the LP is losing a vote in NJ.
Nobody really cares.
Insert Newman meme
@Pyramid Pile of Penis… Directed at me? Eh… Yeah, I could see that…. Eddie cared enough to be a bitch though.
Eddie and PPP got your number, leftist.

@Sam… Cool….. So apparently believing in Freedom (or being socially liberal) now means leftist….. fascinating; used to be something Republicans paid lip service too all the time, now they can’t bother to even act the part anymore. Whatever, I don’t associate with totalitarian trash like yourself, so fuck off dipshit.
Have you gotten to the lesson in school yet where you learn the differences between to, too, and two?
“I don’t associate with totalitarian trash like yourself”
Yet here you are.
“so fuck off dipshit.”
Why so vulgar?
Leftard commies are totalitarian trash. The only way for Arden not to associate with totalitarian trash is to get that helicopter ride that all leftard commies deserve.
Ya know what… sorry, Richard but I can’t be bothered to post here anymore because of the nationalist and fascist trash in the comment section… same reason I don’t post on reason.com.
Maybe you’re just not a very tolerant person.
One less commie polluting the comments here. Cool!
Get that jabroni fanook outta here!
