The 1971 New Jersey State Senate election were held on November 2, 1971, during William T. Cahill's term as governor of New Jersey. The Democratic Party gained seven seats, breaking the Republican supermajority in the Senate and narrowing the majority significantly.
Primary elections were held on June 8.[3]
Until 1965, the New Jersey Senate was composed of 21 senators, with each county electing one. However, the 1964 Supreme Court of the United States decision Reynolds v. Sims required state legislative districts to be approximately equal in population.[4] From 1965 through 1973, New Jersey legislative districts were repeatedly modified to comply with the ruling.
In 1965, the Senate was increased to 29 members, with larger counties apportioned multiple seats and smaller counties sharing one or two senators. In 1967, the Senate was increased further to 40 members, which continued to generally follow county lines. In 1971, districts were redrawn by the New Jersey Apportionment Commission to reflect population changes following the 1970 United States census. One seat was eliminated in each of Essex and Hudson, replaced by new seats in Burlington and Monmouth. District 6 (comprising Mercer and Hunterdon counties) also switched from electing its senators at-large to electing them from two single-member districts because it became composed of more than one county. The changes, which moved representation away from the urban counties and towards the suburbs, generally favored the Republican Party.
The new districts were divided as follows:
| District | Counties | # |
| 1 | Cape May and Cumberland | 1 |
| 2 | Atlantic | 1 |
| 3A | Salem and Gloucester (part) | 1 |
| 3B | Gloucester (part) and Camden (part) | 1 |
| 3C | Camden (part) | 1 |
| 4A | Ocean (part) | 1 |
| 4B | Burlington (part) and Ocean (part) | 1 |
| 4C | Burlington (part) | 1 |
| 5 | Monmouth | 3 |
| 6A | Hunterdon and Mercer (part) | 1 |
| 6B | Mercer (part) | 1 |
| 7 | Middlesex | 3 |
| 8 | Somerset | 1 |
| 9 | Union | 3 |
| 10 | Morris | 2 |
| 11 | Essex | 5 |
| 12 | Hudson | 3 |
| 13 | Bergen | 5 |
| 14 | Passaic | 3 |
| 15 | Warren and Sussex | 1 |
- District 4C was created out of Burlington County.
- District 5 (Monmouth County) gained one seat.
- District 11 (Essex County) lost one seat.
- District 12 (Hudson County) lost one seat.
A total of 15 senators (3 Democrats and 12 Republicans) retired.
