State Senate candidate Guy Gregg has received endorsements from former Jersey City Mayor Bret Schundler, the New Jersey Right to Life PAC, and the National Rifle Association. Gregg and Sussex County Freeholder Steve Oroho are battling to succeed State Sen. Robert Littell in the 24th district.

Assemblywoman Alison Littell McHose, who is backing Oroho, criticized NJRTL for supporting Gregg.
