Tom Kean Jr

Tom Kean Jr., a Republican Congressman representing New Jersey's seventh district, is currently unopposed in his party's primary election. He has garnered a "Complete and Total Endorsement" from former President Donald Trump. Kean has been notably absent from Washington D.C. and his New Jersey district since early March, having last been seen casting a House floor vote on March 5th. Despite his prolonged absence, he is widely expected to secure his party's nomination for re-election. The Democratic primary in his district, however, is contested. Kean's current newsworthiness stems from his upcoming primary and the high-profile endorsement, juxtaposed with his unexplained absence from public view for several months.
