Margin of victory: +52.2%

In the 2024 House race for NJ-10, LaMonica McIver (D) won with 74.4% of the vote, defeating Carmen Bucco (R) who received 22.2%. 4 additional candidates split the remaining vote. LaMonica McIver's 52.2-point advantage over the runner-up confirmed a comfortable win.

This was an open-seat race with no incumbent running — Donald M. Payne Jr. (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. The wide margin suggests this district is firmly in the Democrat column for the foreseeable future.
