The 2020 United States presidential election in New Jersey is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, November 3, 2020, as part of the 2020 United States elections in which all 50 states plus the District of Columbia will participate.[1] New Jersey voters will choose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote. The state of New Jersey has 14 electoral votes in the Electoral College.[2]
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the state's primary elections were postponed until July 7, 2020. By that time, incumbent President Donald Trump of the Republican Party and former Vice President Joe Biden of the Democratic Party had already clinched enough delegates to become the presumptive nominees of their respective parties. Chris Christie, the former governor of New Jersey and Republican primary candidate in 2016 declined to run against Trump. Phil Murphy, the current governor of New Jersey, also declined to run in the Democratic presidential primary.[3] Cory Booker, one of New Jersey's current senators, ran for the presidential bid but has since suspended his presidential campaign.[4]

Primary elections
The primary elections were originally scheduled for June 2, 2020. In April, they were moved to July 7 due to concerns over the COVID-19 pandemic.[5] On May 15, 2020, Governor Phil Murphy signed an executive order declaring that the primary election to become a primarily vote-by-mail election. Democratic and Republican voters will automatically receive a vote-by-mail ballot while unaffiliated and inactive voters will get a vote-by-mail application. Unaffiliated voters must declare their party in the application and send in to their respective county board of elections in order to vote and receive their primary election ballot. A limited number of polling stations in each county will be available on primary day for those who prefer to vote in person (including with provisional ballots if they're unable to obtain one) and for voters with disabilities.[6]
Republican primary
Incumbent President Donald Trump ran unopposed in the Republican primary.[7] The state has 49 delegates to the 2020 Republican National Convention.[8]
