Rebecca Bennett won the Democratic primary in New Jersey's 7th Congressional District on Tuesday. She will face Republican Representative Tom Kean Jr. in the November general election.
Bennett, a former Navy helicopter pilot, secured the Democratic nomination in the 7th Congressional District, according to the Washington Times. The outlet described the district as a "battleground" district.
New Jersey's 7th District is shaping up to be one of the most competitive midterm races for House control this November, according to Time Magazine. The race is expected to draw significant attention as both parties vie for control of the House of Representatives.
Tom Kean Jr. is the incumbent Republican representative whom Bennett will challenge in November. Time Magazine's headline characterized Kean as the "Absent Congressman Tom Kean." The Washington Times reported that Kean "has been abse" — the full context of the statement was truncated in the available source material.
The November election will determine whether Bennett can unseat the incumbent Republican in what has been described as a competitive district. The outcome of this race may contribute to the broader battle for House control.
