Democrats currently hold nine of New Jersey’s twelve House seats, with Republicans defending three. The primary driver of current market pricing is the status of the single competitive district, NJ-7, where Republican incumbent Tom Kean Jr. faces Democrat Rebecca Bennett in a race rated toss-up or lean Democratic by multiple forecasters. Recent polling shows Bennett ahead, aided by suburban voter trends and questions around Kean’s earlier extended absence from Congress. The remaining districts, including open NJ-12 and other safe Democratic seats, show little movement. Trader consensus around ten seats reflects expectations that Democrats will flip NJ-7 while retaining their existing holdings, with limited paths to eleven or more given the narrow number of battlegrounds and historical patterns in the state.
