Despite a packed field of candidates on Primary Election Day 2025 in New Jersey, it didn't take long for the winners to emerge: U.S. Rep. Mikie Sherrill (left) and former state Assemblyman Jack Ciattarelli (right). Each won their party's nomination and will compete in November to fill the seat that will be vacated by two-term Gov. Phil Murphy.

New Jersey voters on Tuesday will settle the Democratic and Republican primaries for governor in a contest that could send signals about how the public is responding to President Donald Trump’s agenda and how Democratic voters think their leaders should push back.
