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 (districts 1 and 2), though one-term Senator Ellen Karcher lost re-election to Jennifer Beck in the 12th district. 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 http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2009/11/nj_senate_democrats_vote_steph.html Democrats vote N.J. Sen. Stephen Sweeney in as Senate president The Star-Ledger 23 November 2009 21 July 2021 "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."
