- The 1993 New Jersey gubernatorial election was held on November 2, 1993. Incumbent Democratic governor James Florio was narrowly defeated by Republican former Freeholder and 1990 U.S. Senate nominee Christine Todd Whitman following backlash from voters regarding tax increases that had occurred during Florio's tenure. Whitman became the first, and as of 2022, only female governor of New Jersey. Primary elections were held on June 8. In the Democratic primary, Governor Florio's only challenger, anti-tax activist John Budzash, was disqualified from the ballot after his signatures were alleged to be invalid. In the Republican primary, Whitman defeated W. Cary Edwards and James Wallwork in a three-way race. This was the first gubernatorial election in the state's history where an incumbent governor lost re-election. As of 2022, this is the last gubernatorial election in which Passaic and Mercer counties voted more Republican than the state overall. This is also the most recent occasion that Cape May County voted Democratic in a gubernatorial election. (en)
