As expected, U.S. Rep. Tom Malinowski (D-7) is poised to beat Republican challenger Tom Kean, Jr.

In CD4, Republican U.S. Rep. Chris Smith defeated challenger Stephanie Schmid.

The race is close as expected.  Tens of thousands of votes need to be counted over the next few weeks and we will work hard to make sure every vote is counted and every voice is heard.   The majority of the remaining votes to be counted are in Atlantic and Cumberland counties which are Democratic counties Amy is currently winning and we fully expect to win.   At the end of the day when all the votes are counted, we are confident Amy Kennedy will be elected to Congress.

Mikie Sherrill has just claimed victory in CD-11, becoming the first Democrat elected  in the “blue wave” of 2018 to be reelected to Congress.

As expected, U.S. Rep. Andy Kim’s candidacy looks good on Election Night. He’s up over 54,000 votes over Republican businessman David Richter in Burlington and only down 19,000 in Ocean.

But it’s not over yet…

In Somerset, Clerk Steve Peter has 160,488 VBMs into the system as of tonight, which eclipses 2016 totals.

It’s over in Roselle.

Shaw had the backing of Assemblyman Jamel Holley of Roselle.

Donald Shaw, the longtime community activist and former Director of Recreation for the Borough of Roselle is on pace to become the next Mayor of Roselle.
