Race To Replace Senator Booker: See Who Is Running
New Jersey’s Senate race is shaping up with four official candidates vying for the seat Cory Booker has held since 2013. Booker ran unopposed in the Democratic primary and faces Republican Justin Murphy (a Navy vet and attorney who somehow clinched his party’s nomination with negative $24 in his campaign account), plus two third-party candidates, Veronica Fernandez and Joanne Kuniansky. A Murphy win would mark the first Republican Senate victory in New Jersey since 1972.
