In 2024 , Kamala Harris narrowly beat President Donald Trump by 5 points in the New Jersey presidential race.

Since 2020 , New Jersey Democrats had an advantage of more than 1 million voters, but that has since dwindled down to 896,300 registered Democratic voters.

In January , Republicans gained 10,000 voters, and Democrats lost 2,000 registered voters in January .

Democrats and Republicans agree that the 2025 gubernatorial race will be pivotal, depending on who they nominate.

Both parties have a crowded bench of candidates, with Ciattarelli running again and radio host Bill Spadea on the Republican side.

New Jersey Hispanic voters could be their own swing group, based on their move to the right.
