Phil Murphy’s 2021 campaign raised $24 million, significantly less than the $35 million raised in 2017, where he contributed $16 million from personal funds. Notably, Murphy did not fund his 2021 campaign personally. This disparity raises questions about his victory, attributed to substantial funding from entities linked to the New Jersey Education Association (NJEA) and its dark money super PAC, Garden State Forward, which funneled over $120 million from union dues. These funds financed various campaigns aligned with Murphy while masking the source of funding, raising concerns about conflicts of interest and perceived fraud in campaign finance practices within New Jersey politics.
