This year's election cycle was hard-fought, and we're proud of all the great work that NJ Young Dem candidates put into their races! Be it through calling voters, putting out lawn signs or cutting turf, young Democratic candidates and their supporters worked arduously to ensure for a more sensible and compassionate approach to policy throughout the state.
