October 23, 2024 — New Jersey has ambitious plans to host hundreds of offshore wind turbines in the years and decades to come. One project may be in construction as soon as next year.
But as people prepare to head to the ballot box this November with a bevy of topics to consider, it turns out they don’t think harnessing power from the wind should be high on our To Do list.
Most voters in New Jersey don’t think offshore wind projects should be a “major priority” for the state, according to a Stockton University poll released Tuesday.
Alyssa Maurice, director of research at Stockton’s William J. Hughes Center for Public Policy, told NJ Advance Media that this was an independent poll with no external funding.
