The Clifton City councilwoman defeated attorney Tiffany Burress and will challenge Democratic Rep. Nellie Pou after the Associated Press called the race.
- On Friday, The Associated Press called the race for Clifton City councilwoman Rosie Pino, who won the Republican primary in New Jersey's 9th Congressional District to challenge Democratic Rep. Nellie Pou.
- Republicans identify the district as an opportunity following the 2024 election, when Donald Trump won in areas where the GOP had not been victorious for decades.
- Pino, a former Democrat who switched to the GOP, defeated attorney Tiffany Burress in the primary while criticizing Democrats for their longtime control of the region.
- In a statement Friday, Tiffany Burress expressed gratitude to supporters but stopped short of backing Pino, who extended a hand to "Republicans, Independents, and Democrats" across the district.
- Outlining her platform this week, Pino stated, "In Congress, I will help lead the fight to secure our elections," by advocating for mandatory Voter ID nationwide and strict limits on late mail-in voting.
