TRENTON, N..J. — New Jersey voters on Tuesday will settle the Democratic and Republican primaries for governor in a contest that could send signals about how the public is responding to President Donald Trump's agenda and how Democratic voters think their leaders should push back.

New Jersey's primary election for governor features a crowded field of Democrats and Republicans. Affordability emerged as a key issue.

New Jersey voters will head to the polls Tuesday to pick the two major party candidates who will square off in November’s gubernatorial election — which many observers say is poised to serve as an early referendum on President Donald Trump’s second term.
