Between 1992 and 2023, New Jersey's political landscape underwent periods of flip-flopping between Republicans and Democrats. 

The state saw periods of Democratic trifecta dominance from 2004 to 2009 and again from 2018 to 2023, signifying Democratic control in the executive and legislative branches.

Prior, Republican trifecta control held sway from 1994 to 2001, indicating Republican dominance during that period. 

Additionally, New Jersey experienced periods of divided government, where power was shared between parties in 1992-1993, 2002-2003, and 2010-2017.
