There still is Linda Weber (who has plenty of money) and Peter Jacob (the main Our Revolution candidate) in the running. The primary still has competition
I'm not a local like you but I think that New Jersey isn't fertile ground for Sanders-like candidates.
You're right, unfortunately. I vote in this district and Jacob isn't going to win (even though I'm planning to vote for him atm). Weber has 2 county lines, so she definitely has a decent shot, but I think Malinowski should win this now.
Malinowski is alright, should be much better than Weber, who seems awful.
