"NJ Senate Race: Andy Kim's Dominance Shakes Up Political Landscape"
Jersey City Mayor Steve Fulop withdrew his endorsement of New Jersey First Lady Tammy Murphy for U.S. Senate, switching his support to U.S. Rep. Andy Kim, and calling on Murphy to drop out of the race. The Democratic primary has become increasingly unpredictable, with a focus on the controversial system of preferential primary ballot placement known as the "county line." The system has been a central issue in the race, with a federal judge holding a hearing on a lawsuit seeking to throw it out. The first lady is expected to receive the line in counties representing the majority of Democratic voters in the state, but critics argue that it is archaic, confusing, and unfair.
