## Resource

Congressman Tom Kean Jr., sidelined since March due to an undisclosed illness, maintains a substantial cash advantage over Democratic challengers in New Jerseys seventh congressional district. Despite a recent fundraising dip, he has nearly $3.4 million in the bank, more than all Democratic contenders combined. Four Democrats are vying for the chance to face Kean in the June primary, with Rebecca Bennett leading the pack with over $3 million raised. However, Bennett also faces opposition from outside groups, with one PAC spending over half a million dollars against her. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
