New Jersey’s Congressional District 7 (CD7) will play a key role in the 2026 congressional midterm elections. The incumbent, no-show Republican Tom Kean Jr., has repeatedly voted against the interests of his constituents, voting with the Trump agenda nearly 100% of the time.   

It’s imperative to elect a Democrat who can flip the seat and who cares about the health and welfare of New Jersey families. To that end, Indivisible Lambertville/New Hope (ILNH) works to engage voters, provide information about the Democratic candidates running in the June primary, and drive support for the candidate ultimately chosen to represent Democrats in November’s general election.

There are three main elements to this effort:

  • Candidate questionnaires. Each candidate responded to a questionnaire sent out in December that allowed ILNH to assess their stances on key issues of concern to our community and how their positions relate to our core values. Their full responses can be viewed here.
  • Candidate scorecard. ILNH conducted a rigorous scoring process to assess the candidates’ answers to the questionnaire. The process included a diverse team of more than 32 reviewers, who scored the blinded answers against a detailed, question-by-question scoring rubric. Click here to view.
  • Candidate debate. On Thursday, January 29, ILNH hosted an in-person debate moderated by journalist Laura Jones. Watch the recording of the event on our YouTube channel.
