In Secretary Way, Gov. Murphy has chosen an exceptional leader, someone whose love of our state is manifest in her exemplary record of public service.\n\n\u201cAs New Jersey\u2019s top election official and the first Black person to lead the National Association of Secretaries of State, Secretary Way has worked tirelessly to protect the integrity of our elections and ensure access to the ballot box. She has also been a powerful force in supporting New Jersey\u2019s tourism and leisure industries and building a stronger economy.\n\n\u201cI\u2019m excited to work with Secretary Way in her new role as we serve the people of New Jersey with renewed purpose and dedication in honor of the remarkable life and legacy of the late Lt.
