Three Democrats are running for mayor in the June 6 primary: Former Mayor Dodd, incumbent Mayor Carolyn Blackman, and former Alderman Edward Correa. In heavily Democratic Dover, where no Republicans have filed to run for mayor, a win in the primary likely clears the way for victory in the general election this November.

Dodd served three terms as mayor before losing two bitter campaigns to Blackman in 2019 after the Morris County Democratic Committee endorsed a slate of candidates.

After losing the primary to Blackman, Dodd again ran as an independent against her in the November general election and lost by 50 votes. Blackman became Dover’s first female mayor and the first Black woman to lead the town.

Blackman, however, failed to win her party’s endorsement in her bid for a second term at last month’s Dover Democratic Committee convention.
