Description Special election to fill the remainder of Joseph Charles's term. A Hudson county feud is making this normally uneventful race a battle between Dem. Primary winner and likely November victor Glenn Cunningham and the man he defeated in the primary, Harvey Smith.

Because this race is decided by party insiders and not the voting public, Cunningham may have problems taking his seat early.
