And the campaign, which had already been rocked by questions about a loan that Mr. Corzine had given to a former companion who is a state union leader, reached a low point when both candidates had to fend off questions about women with whom they were rumored to be romantically involved, prompting lurid news reports.

The rancor of the last week in the campaign played against the backdrop of public opinion polls that showed a race that seemed to be tightening by the day, as what had been a lead of more than 10 percentage points for Mr. Corzine for much of the campaign dwindled in some surveys to the low single digits.

Mr. Corzine continued to express regret about an answer in Saturday's debate, when he was caught flatfooted by a question about lowering the drinking age; Mr. Corzine did not know that the legal age was 21.

He also said that the testy tenor of the debate was a result of the format, in which, at one point, the moderator, Gabe Pressman of WNBC, asked each candidate to critique the other's TV ads. Combined, the candidates have spent $72 million on their campaigns so far - a record for a governor's race in the state.

For his part, Mr. Forrester, the Republican, seemed satisfied by his showing in the debate. "I felt that when I came away from the debate that everything we have been trying to communicate was laid out there in a very reasonable way," he said. "And I would guess that the audience is going to look at that and say, 'Yep, we want a change.' "
