Government
Local government
South Harrison Township is governed under the Township form of New Jersey municipal government, one of 141 municipalities (of the 565) statewide that use this form, the second-most commonly used form of government in the state.[35] The Township Committee is comprised of five members, who are elected directly by the voters at-large in partisan elections to serve three-year terms of office on a staggered basis, with either one or two seats coming up for election each year as part of the November general election in a three-year cycle.[3][36] At an annual reorganization meeting, the Township Committee selects one of its members to serve as Mayor and another as Deputy Mayor.[4]
As of 2020, members of the South Harrison Township Committee are Mayor Joseph Marino (R, term on committee ends December 31, 2021; term as mayor ends 2020), Deputy Mayor Robert Diaz (R, term on committee ends and as deputy mayor ends 2020), John Horner (R, 2021), Carmen A.

In 2007, Charles Tyson was elected Mayor, the first African American to hold the post.[42][43] He was re-elected in 2008. In 2009, however, he declined to seek re-election to a third term, citing the death threats and racist vandalism that had arisen.[43] He had received threatening phone calls and emails, his tires were slashed, and "KKK" was written on a sign on his lawn.[44] A federal indictment has charged a white supremacist from Virginia, Bill White, with "communicating threats in interstate commerce", based on White's emails to Tyson and phone calls to Tyson's wife in 2008.[45][46][47] No arrests have been made, however, in connection with the incidents in 2007,[48] even though the town posted a $24,000 reward.[46]

"A study is being planned to evaluate the fiscal feasibility of the regionalization of the school districts associated with the Kingsway Regional district, and the impact of continuing or severing the current relationship the district has with Logan Township. Woolwich township, Swedesboro, East Greenwich Township and South Harrison Township all currently feed their elementary students to the Kingsway Regional district for middle and high school, with Logan Township sending students to the high school on a tuition basis. The study will address the fiscal feasibility of regionalizing Kingsway, East Greenwich, South Harrison and Swedesboro-Woolwich."
