With the election fast approaching, we want to clarify NJ21st’s approach to the 2025 campaign season.

We’ve reached out to all declared candidates running for office (contested races) in the 21st Legislative District and invited them to use our platform in sharing substantive candidate statements.

Dunellen and Middlesex Borough Candidates email addresses weren’t available so we submitted OPRA requests to get them.

We also welcome contributions from residents across the 21st District year round.

Whether it’s a candidate endorsement, a meeting summary or documents related to your local council or BOE, we want to hear from you. We especially encourage engagement in towns where transparency has historically been limited.

You can submit your articles here or by emailing [email protected]. All contributions must be substantive and rooted in verifiable facts.

All submissions—whether from candidates or residents—are governed by our policies on:

• Political Endorsements and Candidate Statements

• Editorial Independence

• Terms of Use

NJ21st is a nonprofit civic journalism initiative. We’re not backed by corporations or political machines.

This platform was built to give folks in the 21st District a resource and a voice.

Please use it.
