Irhuluneli yaseNew Jersey uChris Christie uxhase usomashishini uDonald Trump njengokhetho lwakhe kuMongameli. Owayesandula ukunyulwa kwiRiphabhlikhi kwiNdlu yoRhulumente, owayesakuba yiRhuluneli uChristine Todd Whitman, uthe angathanda ukuvotela umgqatswa weDemokhrasi owayesakuba nguNobhala welizwe uHillary Clinton kunokuba avotele uTrump.
Kwabaninzi abanyulwa ngamaRiphabhlikhi aseNew Jersey, kubonakala ngathi isigqibo sikaChristie okanye isigqibo sikaWhitman asiyondlela eya phambili xa ujonga ukutyunjwa kweRiphabhlikhi ekunokwenzeka ukuba iye kuTrump. Endaweni yokuba uninzi lukhethe ukuhlala kumama malunga nokhuphiswano oluzayo lobongameli ngenxa yokunqongophala kweTrump okanye okhuphisana naye ophambili oshiyekileyo kugqatso: USenator waseTexas uTed Cruz. Ngelixa i-Rhuluneli yase-Ohio uJohn Kasich naye usaxubekile, ukunqongophala kwakhe kwabathunywa ukuza kuthi ga ngoku kwenza ukuba kube nzima ngakumbi nangakumbi kwabo bangekakhethi mgqatswa (okanye umgqatswa wakhe uphumile) ukuba bamxhase.
Ngokwe-Republican Assemblywoman uMaria Rodriguez-Gregg (R-8), olu gqatso lobumongameli lumshiye engenamdla.
Okwangoku, andichazwanga ngokupheleleyo, utshilo uRodriguez-Gregg. Ngokucacileyo bendingafuni ukuba. Ndifuna ukonwaba ngomgqatswa. Ndiyaqonda ukuba akukho mgqatswa uyakuze abe liipesenti ezili-100 ngokuhambelana namaxabiso am kodwa andinako ukuthi ndinomdla kwaphela ngomgqatswa kugqatso ngoku.
Xa ebuzwa ukuba angamvotela na uTrump ukuba ukhethwe njengonyuliweyo weqela kwiNdibano yeRiphabhlikhi kaJulayi, uRodriguez-Gregg uthe uxhomeke kumbindi wangaphambili njengangoku.
Okwangoku andiyixhasi iTrump okanye ubumongameli beTrump okanye ubugqwetha. Andimxhasi njengomtyunjwa wethu, utshilo uRodriguez-Gregg. Okwangoku ndoyame kude naye.
Ummeli weNdibano uHolly Schepisi (R-39) ukwathe unezinto azikhathaleleyo malunga neengxelo eziphikisayo ezenziwe nguTrump kumkhankaso wephulo malunga namaqela afana namaSilamsi kunye namaMexico. USchepisi uthe usathatha isigqibo ngento azakuyenza kwaye uzakuyijonga ngokutsha emva kokuba kukhethwe umntu onyuliweyo.
Ndicinga ukuba side sibenomtyunjwa oqinisekileyo, ndiyigcina ipowder yam yomile kule, utshilo uSchepisi. Ngaba ndinexhala malunga nezinye zeengxelo kunye nezimvo ezenziwe kwinqanaba lomkhankaso? Ngokuqinisekileyo. Ngaba ndinayo inkxalabo malunga nokuba sibeka phambili okanye hayi umgqatswa onokuthi ekugqibeleni aphumelele kunyulo jikelele? Ewe. Kodwa, okwangoku ndicinga ukuba ngaphambi kwexesha. Kude kube le nkqubo iqhubeka kwaye kukho inani eliqinisekileyo labathunywa ndicinga ukuba kusekuqaleni ukuba ndenze opine.
USchepisi ukwathe, uyakuthathela ingqalelo ukuxhasa umntu otyunjiweyo ukuba umntu lowo uhlangabezana nezinto ezithile.
Kudala bendixhasa abagqatswa bethu embuthweni ngaphandle kwezam izimvo ezahlukileyo, utshilo uSchepisi. Ndiza kulixhasa iqela lethu ukuba nje nokuba ngubani umgqatswa wethu angandinika inqanaba lokuthuthuzeleka lokuba, njengomongameli, bamele bonke abantu kwaye bamele bonke abantu ngokulinganayo ngaphandle kobuzwe, isini, isini okanye inkolo.
I-Senator kaRhulumente u-Sam Thompson (R-12) uxelele i-PolitickerNJ ukuba uzinikele ngokupheleleyo kummeli weRiphabhlikhi kunyulo jikelele kodwa akavumanga ukuthetha ngokuthe ngqo nakwezinye iiriphabliki zaseRiphabhlikhi ezazishiye ugqatso.
Xa ebuzwa ukuba uyasazi na isizathu sokuba i-NJ GOP ibonakale idikidiki kakhulu kukhuphiswano lobongameli, uThompson uthe: Ukuqala kwethu, sasinabagqatswa abali-17 phaya kwaye abantu abohlukeneyo baxhasa abagqatswa abohlukeneyo. Okwangoku sikwisithathu. Abo bantu bali-14 bonke banenkxaso kwaye xa bephumile akufani nokuba bekukho umdla omkhulu komnye umntu.
Umthombo omnye weRiphabhlikhi owayengafuni ukubizwa ngegama uxelele iPolitickerNJ ukuba ithemba lobongameli bukaTrump lininzi e-GOP yaseNew Jersey.
Unabantu abanjengoWhitman abathi bazokuvotela uHillary endaweni kaTrump, utshilo umthombo. Kodwa, kunzima ukuba yiRiphabhlikhi kwaye uyitsho. UTrump akazukutshabalalisa umhlaba. Nokuba umongameli akanawo amandla elinye. Ngubani owaziyo? Mhlawumbi uya kujikeleza nabantu abalungileyo kwaye abe nobongameli obuhle.
Ukunqongophala komnqweno wokubuyela kuTrump kunokubonwa kwiingxelo zeNkokeli eNcinci yeNdibano uJon Bramnick. Iphe olitico uqaphele ukuba uBramnick-nangona engakhange amthiye igama uTrump-watsho ngoJanuwari: Ipolitiki isukile kubugcisa bolawulo-melo ukuya kwibala lezinyeliso, ukugculelwa nokubonisa ... Ukuphatha abachasi ngentlonelo akusekho ndawo ethandwayo kwilizwe laseMelika, kwaye oko kufanele ukuba kube yingxaki kuthi sonke. Emva koko, emva kokuba uChristie evume uTrump ngasekupheleni kukaFebruwari, uBramnick watyhila iphepha wathi kule New York Times: Ndizimisele ukuxhasa ukhetho lwerhuluneli apha, kuba uTrump unonxibelelwano olukhulu neNew Jersey… Unezifundo zegalufa apha. Uyayazi iNew Jersey kakuhle. Akukho nxibelelwano lwangempela phakathi kwabanye abaviwa kunye neNew Jersey.
Izitulo zeriphabliki yeQela leRiphabhlikhi eNew Jersey nazo zibonakala ukulungele ukubuyela kuTrump ngaphandle kwezichaso zangaphambili kulonyulo.
Umgqatswa ophelileyo weRiphabhlikhi kumongameli ufuna abathunywa abayi-1,237 ukufumana unyulo. Ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, uTrump unama-673, uCruz unama-411 kwaye uKasich unama-143. Ngenxa yokuba abathunywa basahlulelene kakhulu, kuye kwakho intelekelelo yokuba akusayi kubakho mgqatswa ungena kwindibano kaJulayi nenani elifunekayo labathunywa bokuchonga. Ukuba loo nto inokwenzeka, abathunywa abangazinikelanga banokukhetha umgqatswa oza kulungelelana nabo. Ngelo xesha, ukuba akukho mntu usenayo imilingo eyi-1,237 efunekayo, ngaphezulu kwesiqingatha sabathunywa baba ziiarhente zasimahla kwaye indibano iyaqhekeka.
Ngokubakho kwendibano eqhekezayo ezayo, u-anti-Trump uluvo kunye nokungabikho kothakazelelo (njengoko kubonisiwe kwiRiphabhlikhi yam eNew Jersey) banokuza badlale. Abanye bacinga ukuba umbutho unokukhetha uSomlomo weNdlu uPaul Ryan njengomntu otyunjiweyo, nangona engazange angene kwiprayimari. Ezinye iingcali zibanga ukuba umntu wangaphandle angangena kwaye aphazamise inkqubo. Nokuba yeyiphi na indlela, uqikelelo lweqela leRiphabhlikhi eliqhekekileyo kunye notshintsho kwinkqubo yeqela elawula ezopolitiko zase-US zininzi.
Ukuba unyulo luza kuphela kwisiphelo esibuhlungu, i-New Jersey kaJuni 7 yaseprayimari inokubaluleka ngakumbi kunesiqhelo. Abathunywa bakarhulumente abangama-51 (kunye ne-172 ukuya eCalifornia kunye nama-80 kwamanye amazwe kwangolo suku) banokwenza okanye baphule ukuba ingaba umgqatswa uyangena na kwindibano kunye nenani labathunywa abafunekayo.
Nangona kunjalo, ngokutsho komnye umthombo weRiphabhlikhi, ezo voti azinakwenza mahluko mkhulu.
Ukuba iyehla kuyo, ndinokukhetha nje enye kwezi zingasentla, utshilo umthombo.
