Marcia A. Karrow (born March 10, 1959) is an American politician affiliated with the Republican Party. She is currently serving as the mayor of Flemington, New Jersey. She previously served in the New Jersey State Senate representing the 23rd Legislative District from February 9, 2009 to November 23, 2009. She previously served for three years in the General Assembly representing the same district she represented in the Senate.
In the assembly, Karrow was one of two assemblymembers representing the 23rd district, the other being Michael J. Doherty. When Leonard Lance resigned from the State Senate after his election to the U.S. House of Representatives, Karrow and Doherty ran against each other in a January 24, 2009 special election convention for the right to succeed him, with Karrow winning. However, Doherty decided to run against Karrow again in the June 2009 Republican primary election for the State Senate seat, and he defeated her. After going on to win the general election in November of that year against Democrat Harvey Baron, Doherty succeeded Karrow in the State Senate on November 23, 2009.
