With roughly eight months until a November election, a Stand With Crypto poll suggested that the organization’s New Jersey advocates could determine who will be the next governor.

The digital asset advocacy organization Stand With Crypto has released data suggesting that the crypto policy positions of candidates in the 2025 New Jersey gubernatorial race could determine the outcome. 

According to a March 6 notice, Stand With Crypto said roughly 62,000 people had registered with the organization in New Jersey, suggesting that crypto-minded voters could play a role in the state’s November gubernatorial election. During the last race in 2021, Democrat Phil Murphy defeated challenger Jack Ciattarelli by roughly 84,000 votes, with more than 40% of registered voters turning out. 

The advocacy group released the results of a February poll among 400 of its members in New Jersey, showing 63% were more likely to vote for a pro-crypto candidate in the state’s gubernatorial election. The data showed that 17% of individuals in the poll said they would not vote for a gubernatorial candidate opposed to crypto policies.
