Video Description

Former President Barack Obama stumped for Rep. Mikie Sherrill in Newark on Saturday as Democrats brought out their heavy hitters in a bid to stymie the surging GOP candidate Jack Ciattarelli in the tightening gubernatorial race. “You have a candidate worth being excited about,” the 44th president said to rousing applause from sympathetic locals gathered for the rally at Essex County College Gymnasium on Saturday. He then framed the New Jersey gubernatorial race as a battle against his successor, President Donald Trump. Obama urged those gathered to vote in Tuesday’s election, saying: “Let’s face it, our country and our politics are in a pretty dark place right now.” “It’s hard to know where to start because every day this White House offers up a fresh batch of lawlessness and carelessness and meanspiritedness and just plain old craziness,” Obama said.
