Booker Set to Face Navy Vet Justin Murphy in New Jersey Senate Race

U.S. Senator Cory Booker will face Navy veteran Justin Murphy in the November general election for New Jersey's Senate seat. Murphy secured the Republican nomination after winning the party's primary, ending the previous incumbent's bid for re-election. This matchup pits a high-profile Democrat against a local figure who previously lost the 2024 Senate race but is now seeking a comeback.
