* District 11, where 12-term Rep. Rodney Frelinghuysen (R-Harding) is retiring, Democrats signed up 443 new members in April and 6,860 since 2016; Republicans gained 142 new members in April and 2,628 since 2016.
* District 7, where Rep. Leonard Lance (R-Clinton) is seeking re-election to a sixth term, 434 new Democrats were added in April and just 62 new Republicans; since 2016, its 8,026 more Democrats and 2,229 more Republicans.
* District 2, where 12-term Rep. Frank LoBiondo (R-Ventnor) is retiring, April netted 215 new Democrats and 185 new Republicans. Since the Trump election, the district has picked up 5,411 Democrats and 3,950 Republicans.
* District 5, where freshman Rep. Josh Gottheimer (D-Wyckoff) is going for a second term, April brought in 220 new Democrats and 50 new Republicans.

(31,798 posts)NJ 7th - Clinton and Lance won
R Freilinghuysen - NJ 11th - Phil Murphy creamed the shit out of the Republican in 2017.
And Malinowski - the NJ 7th Demcoractic Candidate. There are two other candidates (viable) for Primary next month - but
Tom, former employee of the Obama Admin - he's gonna win. Doesn't get better than this guy -

NJ should be ashamed of ourselves if we send any more Republicans to Washington DC. They are against us and out for everyone other than their own constituents.
