Who’s Running for NJ Governor — and Why Montclair Should Care
About this episode
The race to become New Jersey’s next governor is officially underway — and it’s shaping up to be one of the most competitive and consequential elections in years. With no incumbent, a crowded field of candidates, and a new primary ballot format that could reshape outcomes, the 2025 election is already stirring big questions about the state’s political future. The primary election is June 10th.
Terrence McDonald, a longtime political reporter and editor of The New Jersey Monitor, is joining us in breaking it all down. We cover who’s in the race, the role of campaign funding, and how Trump’s lasting influence continues to shape political strategies.
And Montclair? We’re right in the middle of it. With two major candidates — Mikie Sherrill and Sean Spiller — calling this town home, local dynamics are starring in the statewide contest.
