US EditionSherrill Wins New Jersey Governor’s Race
The election will decide if New Jersey remains Democratic or flips Republican after 8 years, with over 1.3 million early and mail-in ballots already cast, officials said.
- On Tuesday, polls opened across New Jersey from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. for an Election Day deciding the next governor, with Republican Jack Ciattarelli and Democrat Mikie Sherrill competing for the open seat.
- The seat is open because Gov. Phil Murphy is term-limited after two consecutive terms, and affordability issues like taxes and electric rates have dominated, with the race seen as a test of President Donald Trump's second term.
- More than 1.3 million voters cast mail or early in-person ballots before Election Day, with Real Clear Politics' final average showing Sherrill ahead 48.9% to 45.6%.
- The projection positions Mikie Sherrill's victory as a political setback for the GOP after Decision Desk HQ projected her win Tuesday night.
- All 80 Assembly seats are also being decided, with Democrats holding a 52-28 majority; local mayoral contests in Jersey City and Atlantic City add stakes amid the state's costliest gubernatorial race.
