On the list of potential political vulnerabilities, ties to New Jersey are rarely a campaign killer; all jokes aside, New Jersey offers some of the country’s greatest musical, culinary and cultural additions.
But the campaign of John Fetterman, the Democratic candidate for the open Senate seat in Pennsylvania, repeatedly chided his Republican opponent, Mehmet Oz, for living in New Jersey before announcing his campaign in the Keystone State.
In his latest such post on Twitter, Mr. Fetterman brought in Nicole Polizzi, an actor from the “Jersey Shore” franchise, better known as Snooki, and a self-described “hot mess on a reality show,” to chide Dr. Oz for choosing to left New Jersey “to look for a new job.”
“Personally, I don’t know why anyone would want to leave Jersey,” Ms. Polizzi says in the video, which is framed to look like a spot by Cameo, a website that lets users pay for private video messages from celebrities ( and, apparently , Snookis).
