Elections
2017
General election
Elections for the New Jersey General Assembly took place in 2017. All 80 seats were up for election. State assembly members are elected to two-year terms. The general election took place on November 7, 2017. A primary election took place on June 6, 2017. The filing deadline for the primary election was April 3, 2017.[2] Legislative districts in the New Jersey General Assembly are multi-member districts, with two representatives in each district. In Democratic and Republican primary elections, the top two candidates move forward to the general election, and the top two candidates in the general election are declared the winners.[3] Incumbent Bob Andrzejczak (D) and incumbent R.

Races we watched
Ballotpedia identified eight races to watch in the New Jersey General Assembly 2017 elections: three seats with two Democratic members, three seats with two Republican members, and two seats split between the parties. Based on analysis of these districts' electoral histories, these races had the potential to be more competitive than other races and could possibly have led to shifts in a chamber's partisan balance.
This district was a Race to Watch because the presidential candidate opposite of the incumbents' party won the district in the 2016 elections, and both of the incumbents' margins of victory in the previous election were five points or less. Incumbents Bob Andrzejczak (D) and R. Bruce Land (D) ran for re-election in 2017. Andrzejczak was first appointed to the chamber in 2013. He received 27.9 percent of the vote in 2015. Land was first elected in 2015, defeating Republican incumbent Samuel Fiocchi. He received 26.4 percent of the vote. Republicans Fiocchi and Jim Sauro received 23.2 percent of the vote and 22.6 percent in 2015, respectively. District 1 was one of 12 New Jersey state legislative districts that Republican Donald Trump won in the 2016 presidential election. Trump carried District 1 by 8.9 points. In 2012, Democrat Barack Obama won District 1 by 6.2 points. As of 2017, District 1 overlapped with the following counties: Atlantic, Cape May, and Cumberland.
