Take Action New Jersey
NJ-07
New Jersey represents a decent chance to pick up a seat in the U.S. Congress. Second-term Republican Congressman Thomas Kean Jr. is vulnerable in the purple 7th New Jersey Congressional District. Cook rates the race as Even, even though no clear Democratic opponent has emerged.
Two candidates – Rebecca Bennett and Greg Vartan – are already in the race; a number of others are actively considering campaigns, among them former Small Business Administration official Michael Roth and Sue Altman, a top staffer for U.S. Sen. Andy Kim, NJ who narrowly lost to Kean in 2024.
