In an editorial, Knitty Gritty JC member Gerald Miller articulates his point of view on why Jack Ciattarelli as governor would be a disaster for Hudson County. Hudson County is particularly vulnerable to abuses of power. Nearly half of all of our residents were born outside the United States, totaling about 300,000 persons. About 20 percent of Hudson County residents are not United States citizens. ICE agents have been assaulting and kidnaping people, accusing them of trumped-up crimes, holding them without access to legal representation and their families.
