John P. Ginty (born March 2, 1965) is a Republican politician who was a candidate in 2006 for the nomination for U.S. Senate and a financial data analyst from Ridgewood, New Jersey, United States.〔 Ginty was a Navy submarine officer from 1988 to 1993. He is also an alumnus of University of Notre Dame (B.A. & B.B.A., 1988), University of Chicago Graduate School of Business (M.B.A., 1995), and Rutgers School of Law—Newark (J.D., 2003). He is currently the Associate Director for Index Analysis with Standard & Poor's. Ginty was a candidate in two unsuccessful races for a seat in the 40th District of the New Jersey General Assembly, in 2003 and 2005. ==2006 Senate Race== Ginty was a candidate for the Republican nomination for U.S. Senator from New Jersey in the 2006 elections. He ran in the primary against State Senator Thomas Kean Jr., which was held on June 6, 2006. Kean, the winner of the primary, ultimately lost to appointed Democratic Senator Bob Menendez in the November general election. Ginty, a conservative, focused on his opposition to abortion and his support for reduced government spending and taxes, painting Kean as out-of-line with the more conservative voters who typically participate in the Republican primary.〔 On April 27, 2006, the New Jersey Right To Life Political Action Committee endorsed Ginty.〔 Ginty called on Kean to stop soliciting the endorsement of the Sierra Club. Ginty said Kean should not seek their endorsement because the Sierra Club is an "environmental extremist group with a deep history of involvement in left-wing causes."〔 In May 2006, Ginty announced his support for oil exploration in ANWR as part of his overall plan to alleviate high gasoline prices. Both Kean and Menendez oppose ANWR oil exploration. Ginty's plan contained several points, including: energy deregulation, more overall domestic oil exploration and eliminating the ethanol tariff.〔 Kean defeated Ginty by a 3-1 margin in the primary election held on June 6, 2006.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「John P.
