Last month’s legislative primary in New Jersey saw record fundraising by candidates statewide in a primary, and independent spending organizations kicked in essentially a new June election high on ads to boost candidates in a handful of districts.
Candidates took in more than $37.4 million, the most ever, according to an analysis by the New Jersey Election Law Enforcement Commission (ELEC) of post-election spending reports submitted through June 30.
When adjusting for inflation, however, that would be the third-highest total, behind $40.9 million in 2011 and $38.3 million in 2017. Still, the 2021 primary total is preliminary and likely to increase, as some candidates did not file their post-election reports by the June 28 deadline.

NJ residents who need substance abuse treatment
Legislation to aid the estimated 94,000 New Jersey residents in need of substance abuse treatment was signed into law Friday.
The new laws focus on making medicines that help treat the effects of opioids more accessible, including opioid antidotes such as naloxone, which can help save the life of someone experiencing an overdose, and buprenorphine, which is used to help treat opioid use disorder.
“As a doctor, I know just how important it is to prepare for and respond to medical emergencies patients may encounter,” said Assemblyman Herb Conaway (D-Burlington). “With thousands of lives lost to overdoses each year, we need a system in place to help residents struggling with substance use disorders who may be at risk for overdoses.”

Gordon Johnson, a former law enforcement officer who has served in the state Assembly for 19 years, won Tuesday s primary battle to succeed Bergen County Democratic stalwart Loretta Weinberg in the state Senate.
Johnson, 71, won 75% of the vote with all the precincts reporting, according to The Associated Press, which called the race at about 11 p.m. As my mentor (Weinberg) said, there is no I in the legislature, and there certainly was no I in this campaign either, Johnson said in a statement, thanking those who worked on his campaign. This seat belongs to the people and this night belongs to them as well.
