Maggie Moran, who is well-connected in New Jersey and New York Democratic politics, has established Moxie Strategies in Asbury Park, NJ.
She advised Jersey Senators Frank Lautenberg and Jon Corzine, and served as campaign manager for NY Governor Andrew Cuomo’s re-election bid.
Most recently, Moran ran Tammy Murphy’s bid for the Jersey Senate seat held by Bob Menendez.
She launched M Public Relations in 2022, sold it to Kivvit in 2015 and exited as managing director in 2022.

Moxie will offer corporate communications, crisis, coalition building, social media, DEI analysis/planning, campaign, community relations, advertising, policy & positioning research, influence profiling and media analytics services.
The principles of liberty, self-government and individual rights are often discussed as matters of history. Last week in Odesa, Ukraine, I was reminded they are also very much matters of the present. 
How risks and opportunities have evolved for communicators in the second Trump administration.
Too many executives view public affairs as a technical task. They think that if their policy is strong, their facts are correct, and their lawyers are ready, the outcome will naturally follow. That’s a dangerous misconception.
A majority of Americans (52 percent) say president Trump launched the invasion of Iran in part to distract voters from the Jeffrey Epstein sex scandal. Forty percent disagree, according to Drop Site/Zeteo/Data for Progress survey conducted March 6-8.
