[1] New Jersey voters chose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote, pitting the Republican Party's nominee, incumbent President Donald Trump, and running mate Vice President Mike Pence against Democratic Party nominee, former Vice President Joe Biden, and his running mate California Senator Kamala Harris.

Per exit polls by the Associated Press, Biden's victory came from a coalition of key Democratic constituencies, including 86% of Blacks, 76% of Asians, 72% of Hispanic and Latino Americans, and 50% of Whites.

He also became the first Democrat since Lyndon B. Johnson in 1964 to win Morris County, which Cory Booker won in the simultaneous senate election.

[14] Biden's 2.6 million votes is the most received by any candidate of either party in a presidential election in the state's history.

A limited number of polling stations in each county were available on primary day for those who prefer to vote in person (including with provisional ballots if they're unable to obtain one) and for voters with disabilities.

[16] Incumbent President Donald Trump ran unopposed in the Republican primary.

Counties that flipped from Republican to Democratic Biden won 9 out of the 12 congressional districts in New Jersey.

[58] [59] As the polls predicted, Joe Biden won New Jersey by a wide margin.
