The 2013 New Jersey gubernatorial election took place on November 5, 2013, to elect the governor of New Jersey. Incumbent Republican Governor Chris Christie ran for reelection to a second term in office.[2] He faced Democratic nominee Barbara Buono and six others in the general election. Christie was reelected with over 60 percent of the vote and carried 19 of the state's 21 counties, with Buono only winning heavily Democratic Hudson and Essex.[3] However, less than 40% of registered voters cast ballots, which was the lowest ever for a gubernatorial election.[1] Christie became the first Republican gubernatorial candidate to win more than 50 percent of the vote since Thomas Kean's landslide victory in 1985. He won 21% of African Americans and 51% of Latinos. As of 2021, this is the most recent time a Republican won the governorship of New Jersey or won any statewide election.

Christie was criticized for spending an additional $12–25 million of state money to hold a special election for United States Senator for New Jersey three weeks earlier on October 16, instead of simply holding the special election on November 5, concurrent with the already scheduled gubernatorial election. The Democratic nominee for the U.S. Senate was popular Newark mayor Cory Booker, who is black, and it was thought that Booker's presence on the ballot would attract more black and other minority voters who would be likely to vote for Buono.[4] However, due to Christie's large margin of victory, it is unlikely that this potential extra turnout would have changed the outcome.
