Republican voters in New Jersey are showing up at the polls in greater numbers than in 2021, indicating they are more motivated than ever to make their voices heard.
On Saturday, which was the first of nine days of early voting in New Jersey, Democrats just barely beat Republicans in in-person voter turnout, 42 percent to 39 percent, while 19 percent of those who showed up to cast a ballot were affiliated with a different party.
Data compiled by Michael Pruser of DecisionDesk HQ reveals that Democrats had an in-person advantage of 2,524. However, that edge is much less than the 26,717 in-person voting advantage they held in 2021.
“This was the first of nine days of in-person, early voting. An eternity is still outstanding,” Micah Rasmussen, Director of the Rebovich Institute for NJ Politics at Rider University, explained. “But, if the GOP cannot get any traction on the Dems, then they will go into Election Day with a 275,000-vote hole.”
It’s important to note that these figures represent only voter party affiliation and don’t indicate whether residents of the state have decided to support GOP candidate Jack Ciattarelli or Rep. Mikie Sherrill (D-NJ).
