HUDSON COUNTY, NJ — The voting ended at 8 p.m. and the results are being tallied in local and congressional primary races across New Jersey.

Not every candidate faced a primary opponent in their election Tuesday. But political observers tend to like to know how many votes their candidate attained in the race. The general election will be held on Nov. 8 (see the timeline in New Jersey here).

In Hoboken and Jersey City, there were no mayor or council races this year. But voters were able to vote in the primaries to nominate a candidate for the November congressional races.
