2007 New Jersey Senate elections New Jersey State Senate
The 2007 New Jersey Senate election was held on November 4.
The election took place midway through Jon Corzine 's term as Governor of New Jersey. Democrats gained an additional seat by winning two Republican seats in South Jersey, though one-term Senator Ellen Karcher lost re-election to Jennifer Beck . The Democratic gains in South Jersey laid the groundwork for a transfer of power within the Democratic Party, culminating in Steve Sweeney 's election as Senate President midway through the 2008–12 term.

Margolin, Josh (November 23, 2009). "Democrats vote N.J. Sen. Stephen Sweeney in as Senate president" . The Star-Ledger Senate Democrats emerged from a Statehouse meeting room a few minutes ago, saying Sen. Steve Sweeney (D-Gloucester) has been voted Senate president, replacing Richard Codey, the Essex County Democrat who long led the Senate's Democratic caucus. Codey left the second-floor caucus room at 2:50 p.m. and made only a brief comment to reporters waiting outside.
