Menendez starts out the campaign with weak approval ratings in part due to fallout from his recent corruption trial. But these negatives are more than offset by the fact he has a “D” next to his name. Hugin, on the other hand, is known to few New Jersey voters at this stage of the race. Among all registered voters in New Jersey, a majority of 53% say they would vote for the incumbent Menendez and 32% would choose former Celgene Executive Chairman Hugin if the election for senator was today. Menendez is backed by 92% of his fellow Democrats while Hugin is supported by 84% of his fellow Republicans. Independents split 41% for Menendez and 33% for Hugin. Removing “leaners” from the mix – about one-fifth of all registered voters only “lean toward” a candidate at this time – Menendez has a 42% to 22% edge. Both Menendez and Hugin are the prohibitive favorites for their respective parties’ nominations in the June primary. “Let’s be honest.

While voters tend to hold a negative view of the Democratic incumbent, most feel that the behavior that led to his recent trial was probably no worse than what most other politicians do. Regardless of how they feel about Menendez, voters say that President Donald Trump is ultimately a bigger factor in their choice for Senate. Menendez currently holds a 49% to 40% lead over Hugin among likely voters using Monmouth’s standard midterm turnout model. The poll also included Libertarian Murray Sabrin and the Green Party’s Madelyn Hoffman among the list of named candidates. Each receives 1% support while a generic “some other candidate” – there are an additional four names on the ballot – also receives 1%. The remaining 8% of likely voters are undecided. The largest group of undecided voters is comprised of those from Latino, black, Asian and other non-white backgrounds (17%), with whom the incumbent has a formidable 63%-19% lead otherwise. Menendez also has a slight 48%-45% lead among white voters with a college degree.

Menendez Has 15-Point Lead in New Jersey Senate Race, Quinnipiac University Poll Finds; Independent Voters Swing Back to Democrat
Mary Snow, Polling Analyst (203) 506-8202 Rubenstein Pat Smith (212) 843-8026 FOR RELEASE: NOVEMBER 5, 2018 MENENDEZ HAS 15-POINT LEAD IN NEW JERSEY SENATE RACE, QUINNIPIAC UNIVERSITY POLL FINDS; INDEPENDENT VOTERS SWING BACK TO DEMOCRAT A shift by independent likely voters gives U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez, the Democratic incumbent, a 55 – 40 percent lead over Bob Hugin, the Republican challenger in the New Jersey U.S. Senate race, according to a Quinnipiac University Poll released today. Only 4 percent of likely voters remain undecided, and 6 percent of voters who do name a candidate say they could change their mind by Election Day. Today’s results compare to a 51 – 44 percent lead by Sen. Menendez in an October 17 survey by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University Poll. Independent voters, women and non-white voters are the key to Menendez’ support: • Independent voters back Menendez 53 – 39 percent, compared to 51 – 44 percent for Hugin October 17. Democrats back Menendez 89 – 8 percent, as Republicans back Hugin 95 – 4 percent; • The Democrat leads 51 – 44 percent among men and 58 – 38 percent among women; • The incumbent leads 71 – 19 percent among non-white voters. White voters are divided with 50 percent for Hugin and 47 percent for Menendez. “While they may hold their nose to cast a ballot for Sen. Bob Menendez, voters signal they want to keep New Jersey’s Senate seat in the ‘D’ column in a blue state where President Donald Trump consistently remains unpopular,” said Mary Snow, polling analyst for the Quinnipiac University Poll.

GOP Congressional Candidate Daryl Kipnis Thanks Voters for Primary
PRESS RELEASE Contact: Charles W. Kim June 7, 2018 Communications Director Phone: (732) 798-0252 Email: [email protected] GOP Congressional Candidate Daryl Kipnis Thanks Voters For Primary Support, Prepares To Debate Issues With Democratic Incumbent Kipnis Vows To Get Things Done, Working To Ease $4.2 Trillion Student Debt Crisis SOMERSET, NJ - GOP 12th District congressional candidate, and Somerset attorney, Daryl Kipnis said that he is “honored” to be the party’s nominee after securing the candidacy in primary polling Tuesday. “I am truly honored to be nominated by the Republican Party for the U.S. House of Representatives for New Jersey’s 12th Congressional District,” Kipnis said Wednesday. “I am beyond grateful to my family, to my friends, to all who supported the campaign, and to God to have been blessed with this opportunity.” Kipnis now faces two-term incumbent Democrat U.S. Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman in November’s general election. “In the coming weeks, I look forward to working with Bob Hugin, my Republican running mate for the U.S. Senate, to share our plans to give New Jerseyans representation in both chambers of congress that will fight for the inclusion, equality, liberty and prosperity of each and every resident of the Garden State like never before.” he said. Hugin will face embattled Democratic incumbent U.S. Sen. Bob Menendez who narrowly won his primary challenge Tuesday against fellow Democrat Lisa McCormick. Menendez was censured in the Senate by a bipartisan ethics panel for accepting questionable gifts and travel accommodations from a long-time friend. He escaped conviction during a trial on the matter with a hung jury and then the decision by prosecutors to drop the remaining charges against him.
