The 2000 New Jersey Democratic presidential primary took place on June 6, 2000, alongside the Alabama, Montana, New Mexico, and South Dakota primaries, as part of the Democratic Party primaries for the 2000 presidential election. It was one of the five final primary elections ahead of the 2000 Democratic National Convention. The New Jersey primary was a semi-closed primary, with the state awarding 124 delegates, of which 105 were pledged delegates allocated on the basis of the results of the primary.
Presumptive nominee and vice president Al Gore won nearly 95% of the vote and all delegates. Conspiracy theorist and political activist Lyndon LaRouche Jr. received roughly 5% of the vote.
New Jersey's former US Senator Bill Bradley had been an early competitor for the Democratic nomination but had dropped out by March 9[1] and did not appear on the ballot.
