A new campaign finance law helped Democrats to outraise and outspend Republicans in New Jersey's November legislative elections, according to NorthJersey.
The Democrat-controlled New Jersey state legislature passed the Elections Transparency Act in March that, among other things, doubled campaign contribution limits from $2,600 per candidate per election to $5,200 per candidate per election.
Democrats raised $10.8 million between June 24 and November 24 compared to just $3.9 million raised by Republicans during the same period in the six most competitive New Jersey State Legislature races, all which ended up being ultimately won by Democrats, NorthJersey reported.
Unions are the backbone of the middle class - and nowhere is that more true than in New Jersey.
Union donations largely benefited Democrats in New Jersey during the 2023 legislative elections.
Democratic state Sen. Vin Gopal, viewed as one of the most vulnerable Democrats in New Jersey, also benefited from the new contribution limits.
