| OK, now that FEC reports are out it's time to check out how we are doing in Republican held and open seats. Essentially the six seats with incumbent Democrats are pretty much safe, so these are the places where we might be playing.
The middle column shows where we are doing better than the Republican. You expect that Dems would do well in NJ1 (see notes below about what a joke NJ1 is), but we are winning the money game in NJ3 and NJ7 as well -- overwhelmingly.

One source of mystery is Dale Glading, who is running in NJ1 against the alleged candidate Camille Andrews (whose fundraising once again demonstrates she is not a real candidate).
A search for Glading, Republican, NJ, House on FEC.gov produces no results for contributions or disbursements of any kind. No July Quarterly report has been filed, but at the least as of primary day Glading had raised no money.
That means, as near as I can tell, there are no real candidates running in NJ1. Sheesh.
Update: This is updated to include the pre-primary filing numbers. The CoH numbers were accurate last night, but after the comments it was updated to include the whole quarter. |
