Curtis Bashaw’s Senate nomination over Donald Trump’s preferred candidate in the New Jersey Republican Senate primary and the chance that Sen. Bob Menendez’s independent campaign could split Democrats is fueling GOP hopes they can put a reliably Democratic Senate seat in play this fall.

Bashaw defeated Mendham Borough Mayor Christine Serrano Glassner in Tuesdays primary despite her endorsement by Donald Trump . could split Democrats have fueled fresh GOP hopes that they can put a reliably blue New Jersey Senate seat in play this fall.
The Republicans are hoping Bashaw is the candidate who'll break through the Democratic wall. GOP state Sen. Mike Testa backed Bashaw in the primary, citing his background as a businessman and political outsider and saying he was the only candidate who could win in November. Kim's campaign met resistance when first lady Tammy Murphy entered the race and locked up party establishment support. That sparked a lawsuit from Kim and others aiming to topple the state's unique primary ballot, which gave preferential positioning to candidates with party boss support.
“I don’t think that any other Democrat in New Jersey would be able to be stronger than we are in terms of being able to step up against Republicans," Kim said. “Our message right now — standing up against corruption, standing up against broken politics — it’s going to work very strong against Senator Menendez as well as a Senate candidate that backs a convicted felon.”
