In a closely watched contest, Democrat Annette Mejia is poised to capture a crucial House seat in New Jersey's 5th Congressional District, a suburban area that has historically swung between Republican and Democratic control. Mejia's projected win is seen as a significant boost to Democrats in the state, who are seeking to maintain their grip on power in Washington. The district, which includes parts of Bergen and Hudson counties, has been a key battleground in recent elections, with both parties investing heavily in the race. Mejia's victory would be a notable upset, as Republicans had been seen as strong contenders in the area.
