NJGOP Chairman Endorses Jean Stanfield and Ryan Peters in LD-8 Primary

For Immediate Release

Trenton, NJ –  NJGOP Chairman Doug Steinhardt is endorsing Burlington County Sheriff Jean Stanfield and Assemblyman Ryan Peters for the 8th legislative district Assembly seats ahead of Tuesday’s primary.

Chairman Steinhardt joins former Senator Diane Allen and the county GOP organizations of Burlington, Atlantic and Camden in endorsing Stanfield and Peters.

“The State Republican Party has a general practice of not weighing into our Party’s primaries,” said Chairman Steinhardt.  “But in the case of Joe Howarth, we’re making an exception. The Assemblyman is a fraud and a Republican by registration only. His abrupt shift  from begging South Jersey Democrats to take him in, to reinventing himself as a “MAGA Trump Republican” is nothing short of corruption.”

Steinhardt continued, “Voters need to know who the real Republicans are in this race. Jean Stanfield is the first female Sherriff in Burlington County history and Ryan Peters is a Navy SEAL Commander who served multiple deployments abroad. They understand honor, commitment, and integrity. They both have strong conservative records and impressive resumes of public service. It is a privilege to support them.”
