Republican candidate for governor Jack Ciattarelli ran a much closer race to Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy than expected. Ciattarelli conceded election defeat Friday, but announced that he intends to run again in 2025. In the most stunning outcome of the election, Senate President Steve Sweeney lost his reelection bid in the 3rd Legislative District to unknown Republican Edward Durr.
What are the prospects of a Ciattarelli-Sweeney race in 2025? And how have the election results altered New Jersey’s political profile?
