The election took place alongside Jim McGreevey's landslide election as Governor of New Jersey and were held in the immediate aftermath of the September 11 attacks, which killed 750 New Jerseyans and impacted many others. Under a newly redrawn map, Democrats gained five seats to split control of the Senate evenly. A power-sharing agreement was reached with John O. Bennett and Richard Codey as co-presidents of the Senate.
This is the last time Democrats did not win an outright majority of New Jersey State Senate seats, as well as the last time any Senate in North Jersey changed parties.
