Democrats return more VBM ballots than GOP in all 40 N.J. legislative districts

About 200,000 New Jerseyans have already voted in this year’s off-year election, with almost 22% of all vote-by-mail ballots sent out by county clerks already returned.

Of the 918,435 ballots that were mailed, 918,435 have been recorded as received, according to an analysis by Ryan Dubicki, an Associated Press election researcher.

Republicans are just narrowly returning ballots at a higher percentage than Democrats, 26%-25%, but Democrats have an extraordinary advantage: 57% of all ballots mailed were to Democrats and 18.5% to Republicans; nearly two-thirds of all ballots (66%) come from Democrats and 22% from Republicans.

Democrats have returned more ballots than Republicans in each of the most closely-watched legislative districts: 3,988 in the 3rd; 4,947 in the 4th; 2,878 in the 11th, 3,308 in the 16th; and 2,178 in the 38th. Indeed, VBMs sent back by Democrats outnumber Republicans in all 40 legislative districts.
