Summary
Primary elections wrapped up with clear matchups set for November: Rebecca Bennett vs. Thomas Kean Jr. in District 7, Zack Mullock aiming to unseat Jeff Van Drew in District 2, Rachel Peace in District 4, and Army surgeon Adam Hamawy in District 12 — plus Justin Murphy challenging Cory Booker in the Senate. Turnout varied wildly by county: Morris County led with over 58K votes despite more GOP registrants, Sussex County saw GOP dominance matching registration, Hudson County barely cracked 12%, and Passaic County trailed at 10%. Early signs suggest voter engagement is low — but remember, primaries rarely match general election energy. The real test begins in November.
