Ominous news this morning for the House Appropriations Chairman and scion of a storied New Jersey political family, Save Jerseyans, but nothing anyone watching this year’s Midterm cycle taking shape couldn’t have told you months ago:
–
New @CookPolitical ratings: GOP Reps. Carlos Curbelo #FL26, Peter Roskam #IL06, Rodney Frelinghuysen #NJ11, John Culberson #TX07 move from Lean R to Toss Up.

Rep. Rodney Frelinghuysen is expected to face Democrat Mikie Sherrill next November.
Five New Jersey House seats are considered in play this year according to Cook’s chart.
NJ-3 (MacArthur) is “likely Republican” while NJ-05 (Gottheimer) is “lean Democrat” and NJ-07 (Lance) is “lean Republican.”
NJ-02 (LoBiondo – open) and NJ-11 (Frelinghuysen) are the two toss-ups.
