Senate President Steve Sweeney's (D-3), West Deptford, home county party organization raised the most money last year, leading all other county organizations in both parties.

Gloucester Democrats raised $716,548, followed by Middlesex County Democrats, who raised $696,128.

A big dollar bulk of Gloucester money came from a leaders fund belonging to former Speaker Joe Roberts ($37,000), the campaign of Sweeney, Burzichelli and Riley ($111,000) and the campaign of Madden, Moriarty, and Mosquera ($75,000) - a total of $223,000.

The Burlington County GOP came in third overall and first among GOP county organizations. The organization raised $661,785 in 2011.

The rest, in order, are as follows:

Passaic Democrats - $641,973

Camden Democrats - $496,647

Bergen Democrats - $490,967

Somerset GOP - $382,241

Bergen GOP - $368,093

Union Democrats - $347,856

Hudson Democrats - $339,318

Among county party committees last year, the Passaic County Democratic Committee spent the most of any committee - $732,453, according to ELEC. That organization also ended up with the most cash-on-hand - $248,548. Among Republican committees, the Burlington County Republican Committee spent the most - $663,208.

Four Democratic committees - Bergen, Essex, Middlesex and Passaic - reported a net worth of more than $100,000. Four Democratic counties - Burlington, Gloucester, Hudson and Monmouth - reported being in the red based on their net worth, ELEC said.
