County-Level Candidates 2021

Transparency and informed voters are the best ways to create accountability. Below you can find information about candidates running in the 2021 NJ primary elections. The table below lists county-wide candidates (county clerk, county commissioner, Sheriff and Surrogate), organized by county, party, and position. For state-level (legislature) candidates see this page, and for state committee candidates see this page.

Note that for county commissioner elections you can select a numbers of candidates. Read the small print on your ballot. You can vote for candidates in ANY COLUMN (or row) on your ballot. In the primary elections on June 8th, all candidates on your ballot are in the same party, regardless of whether they are on the “county line” or not.
