| Description | Filing deadline for special Democratic primary arrives in just one week
Gov. Phil Murphy will call a July special primary election and a September special general election to fill the seat of the late Rep. Donald Payne Jr. (D-Newark), meaning that the residents of the solidly Democratic 10th congressional district will not have to wait until November to regain representation in the House.
Murphy’s writ of special election, which will be issued later today, orders as fast of a schedule as New Jersey election law allows: a special primary election on Tuesday, July 16 and a special general election on Wednesday, September 18, with the new member presumably taking office sometime shortly thereafter. |
