There are three key state Senate races to watch as New Jersey voters head to the polls for the state primaries. Here is a closer look at the races.
Republicans hope to flip both chambers of the state legislature in the general election this November, where Democrats currently hold a 46-34 advantage in the state Assembly and a 25-15 margin in the Senate.Here is a closer look at three important state Senate races:Incumbent state GOP Sen. Ed Durr shocked New Jersey in 2021 by defeating then-Senate President Steve Sweeney in the state's 3rd legislative district.
— Senator Edward Durr June 6, 2023 Sawyer claimed Durr's history of making"inflammatory" comments on social media would make him vulnerable to Democrats if he won the nomination. “I’m just over what Sawyer says. She says a lot of things. She implies a lot of things. I’ve read that she’s called me a coward,” Durr said. “Wouldn’t a coward be someone who doesn’t push forward legislation but acts like they’re a conservative? At least I do what I say I’m going to do. I’ve never abstained from a vote, while she has on abortion.”Republicans are optimistic that they can flip the neighboring district, which includes parts of Camden, Gloucester, and Atlantic counties.
DeSilvio is also facing backlash after gaining support from a former Democratic-leaning super PAC called American Representative Majority, which sent out flyers attacking Del Borrello. The organization was called American Democratic Majority until just last week.
