New Jersey 7th District Primary: Bennett Advances to General Election

Rebecca Bennett, a former Navy helicopter pilot and healthcare executive, won the Democratic primary in New Jersey's 7th Congressional District.
Republican Rep. Tom Kean Jr. has not been in public since March 5 due to a personal medical issue.
Bennett accused Kean of being 'nowhere to be found' on key district issues.
Real Change PAC spent over $600,000 attacking Bennett with undisclosed donors.
President Trump endorsed Kean as 'working tirelessly' after carrying the district by 1% in 2024.
Cook Political Report rates the seat as a 'Toss-Up'.
