Rep. Tom Kean Jr. is urging Trump to revoke a license letting Russian diesel into the U.S., breaking with the administration days before his tight reelection race against Democrat Rebecca Bennett. He is also pressing to protect Ukraine's Starlink access. nj.com/politics/2026/10/nj-r…

Back in 2024, when NJ early voting numbers were looking super good for the GOP, I remember wondering, “Is this just a new turnout pattern or is it a sign of a red wave?” (Turns out it was a combo of both, but more the latter.)
Now I’m wondering the same thing in reverse.

In 2024, Donald Trump’s gains among Hispanic voters put #NJ09 in play for Republicans.
In 2026, he’s dragging them down – and both Democratic Rep. Nellie Pou and GOP challenger Rosie Pino are criticizing his record on immigration.

Scoop: A Democratic super PAC is spending $1.5 million on broadcast and cable TV to boost Zach Mullock's chances to take out Republican Jeff Van Drew in NJ-2.

Senate Judiciary committee just voted unanimously to confirm Jeanne Hengemuhle as State Police superintendent.
Hengemuhle is the first woman superintendent, first openly gay person in the role, and she's tied with H. Norman Schwarzkopf as having the hardest name to spell.
