Two Republican officials in New Jersey are switching political parties over what they say are racist comments made by presumptive GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump.
Hackensack Mayor John Labrosse and Deputy Mayor Kathleen Canestrino changed their party affiliation to independents on Thursday. [
]
Labrosse and Canestrino say there was not a specific comment that influenced their decision. They say it was the general tone of the campaign.

It’s interesting that Dems almost never jump ship, but RINOs do all the time, and eagerly. There are many RINOs, but few DINOs.
Then again, “R” isn’t what it used to be.

2 more RINO’s self destructing. Buh-Bye.

Ben Nighthorse Campbell switched from Democrat to Republican, then was beat by a Democrat.

My memory fails; who beat Campbell? I thought he retired undefeated but may be well wrong.

Campbell was a huge pro-abort booster.

Yes there is. New Jersey State Senator Tom Kean Jr. is a conservative, and he may be the next NJ GOP governor in 2017.

I can't find any info on that mayor anywhere. He was a city council guy, with no notable activities on his resume. No party affiliation that I can find, no speeches, no nothing... he's a big zilch.
I'm guessing he's betting on Hillary and has ambitions beyond Hackensack and hopes to ride on her coattail.
Sounds like a fool.
To: real saxophonist
I sit corrected. He was not beat, but replaced, by Salazar.

You’re right, my memory wasn’t. Salazar took his seat.
