On Thursday, New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill called on Lieutenant Governor Dale Caldwell to resign by Friday. The demand follows the publication of a report on Wednesday by a law firm hired by the governor's office, which concluded that Caldwell engaged in serious and repeated violations of the state's ethics and discrimination rules, involving staffers and gifts.
The findings allege misconduct regarding state personnel and the acceptance of gifts, prompting the executive branch to demand an immediate exit. The unfolding political crisis centers on allegations of administrative and ethical breaches within the state's highest offices in New Jersey.
