Education[edit]

Chris Del Borrello attended West Chester University and Rutgers – New Brunswick. In West Chester University, Chris graduated with a master's degree in history, and from Rutgers, he graduated with a bachelor's degree in history in May of 2006. While attending Rutgers, Chris also earned minors in the fields of both Political Science and Philosophy.[5] Sometime after graduating from college, Del Borrello attended a physician assistant program at Drexel University.[6] As a member of the Association of Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialists (ACAMS),[1] Chris has graduated from their online courses and gained the title of Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialist.[8]

Political views[edit]

Chris Del Borrello is an advocate for auditing the government to reduce property taxes, spending and debt, and cracking down on crime to combat the fentanyl crisis.[9] Del Borrello also supports the encouragement of parents to raise children according to their own values and supports balancing land preservation with economic growth.[9] Del Borrello is strongly against gender language rules, and sex education based on gender-identity in the school curriculum.[10][11]

Del Borrello and State Senator Paul Moriarty have made strong statements against one another, including Paul Moriarty's statement toward Del Borrello: "Clueless Chris Del Borrello doesn’t have an original thought in his brain,"[12] and the Democratic-tied campaign ad against Chris, targeting his family’s business.[13][14] In an ad by the Del Borrello team, Paul Moriarty is accused of spending “1 billion dollars [for nothing].”[15] Borrello has additionally claimed to be concerned with foreign cooperations becoming involved with the United States, an example being wind farms being constructed on the New Jersey shore by a foreign Danish company.[16][17]

Del Borrello has made statements demonstrating support for unions, like the International Union of Operating Engineers Local 825, specifically when criticizing Nick DeSilvio[note 1] for being an "anti-union hypocrite."[18] Chris has made his opinion firm on transgenderism, mainly on the political issues of biological males competing in women's sports and usage of different pronouns in schools, of which he does not support.[10][19] At one point during his time in the Washington Township Council, he struck down two budget votes that would increase taxes for taxpayers.[20] Del Borrello has condemned George Norcross numerous times, exclaiming Norcross is funded from a “dark money Super PAC.”[21] In a political debate with Nick DeSilvio,[22]

Del Borrello showed support for a 15-week abortion ban, however, refused to state if he would support a ban lower than 15 weeks.[23] Del Borrello also showed support for individualism, and again advocated for a reduction of government spending.[23] Chris Del Borrello has given support for religious rights in schools, including religious exemptions to vaccines, and parent’s ability to opt their children out of certain curriculum they deem immoral. Del Borrello's 5 point contract gives light to some of his other political views.[24][25][26]

After a return of alleged sex-offender Kevin Tomafsky[27] to Washington Township, both Del Borrello and Paul Moriarty expressed outrage. However, Del Borrello blamed Tomafsky's return on bail reforms, while Moriarty placed the blame on Renard Scott, a Superior Court Judge.[28]

Endorsements and donations[edit]

Election history[edit]

After Del Borrello's loss in the November 2023 elections, Del Borrello remains an active politician in his community.

Following the elections in November 2023, litigations rose among Republicans against the independent candidate Giuseppe Costanzo. The claims against him state that he was a phantom candidate[note 2] placed in the elections to split the GOP vote.[36][37][38]

After winning in the New Jersey Primary Elections in June of 2023,[39][40] Del Borrello lost the November 2023 New Jersey General Election to previous Democratic general assembly member Paul Moriarty.[41] This race was made increasingly competitive due to the 2021-2022 redistricting process.[42]
