In the 2024 House race for NJ-3, Herb Conaway (D) won with 53.2% of the vote, defeating Rajesh Mohan (R) who received 44.6%. 4 additional candidates split the remaining vote. Herb Conaway's 8.6-point lead over the runner-up showed solid but not overwhelming support.

This was an open-seat race with no incumbent running — Andy Kim (D) previously held the seat. Open seats typically attract stronger candidates and heavier spending from both parties. The 2024 presidential election drove higher voter turnout, which can help or hurt down-ballot candidates depending on the top of the ticket. This seat will likely stay on party watch lists as potentially competitive in future cycles.
