New Jersey Democratic candidate for governor faces net worth questions as viral clip resurfaces

When radio host Charlamagne tha God asked Sherrill if she made $7 million in stock trades, the Democratic nominee said, "I haven't. I don't believe I did, but I would have to go and see what that was alluding to…"

Fox News Digital has not independently verified The Washington Free Beacon report. 

During the first gubernatorial debate ahead of New Jersey's November election, Ciattarelli took aim at Sherrill for what he described as profiting from her time in elected office.

Charlamagne tha God repeatedly pressed Sherrill during their interview in May, citing the $7 million figure, which The Washington Free Beacon approximated by averaging the two ranges. 

After repeatedly dodging the question, Sherrill said, "I think we made money from my husband's job. He gets paid in stocks. They're automatically sold. So, I think we made money there. We don't make any individual money stock trading."

She emphasized that she doesn't sell individual stocks, explaining, "I want people to know that I'm not somehow gaining information and enriching myself because of my work in Congress."

But Sherrill pushed back on the debate stage, arguing that she doesn't trade individual stocks. 

"There have been articles written about how transparent and ethical I've been going above and beyond the requirements in Congress, and I continue to do that," Sherrill said. 

Sherrill's campaign did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
