New Jersey Emerges as Key Battleground in 2024 Elections

New Jersey, traditionally a Democratic stronghold, showed signs of becoming a swing state in the latest election, with Donald Trump narrowing the gap significantly against Kamala Harris. Despite Democrats maintaining control of all their House seats and a Senate seat, Trump's gains in counties with large Hispanic and Arab American populations, as well as economic concerns, contributed to the closer-than-expected results. This shift has prompted both parties to reassess their strategies in the state.
