Analilia Mejia将在新泽西州第11国会选区的补选中以微弱优势击败前众议员Tom Malinowski,这对参议员Bernie Sanders及其他进步派的盟友来说是重大胜利。

Malinowski周二在声明中退选,他向Mejia”明确肯定其积极竞选活动以及在选举日鼓舞众多选民的表现”。

预测获胜者

值得注意的是,Malinowski指责美国以色列公共事务委员会(AIPAC),该组织资助了一个花费约200万美元针对他的广告团体。这个名为United Democracy Project的组织在广告中试图将Malinowski描绘成支持美国移民与海关执法局(ICE),并提及他2019年投票支持为该机构提供资金的两党支出法案。

广告反馈

“我本希望能告诉大家,这场旨在恐吓全国民主党人的行动在新泽西州第11选区失败了,”Malinowski在声明中表示,”但提前投票阶段我们明显领先,而选举日投票却出现巨大差异,这表明广告确实产生了重大影响。竞选最后几天我遇到几位选民,他们看过广告后真诚地问:’你是MAGA成员吗?你支持ICE吗?’”

周四的初选是为填补现任州长Mikie Sherrill空出的席位而举行,被视为民主党人在今年中期选举中重新夺回美国众议院的关键试金石。

Mejia曾担任参议员Bernie Sanders2020年总统竞选活动的政治主任,她的胜利对支持她参选的全国进步派领袖而言是重大成功,包括Sanders、马萨诸塞州参议员Elizabeth Warren和纽约众议员Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez。Mejia曾是新泽西州Working Families Alliance的前负责人,目前担任草根组织网络Popular Democracy的执行董事之一。

“与当下许多民主党人一样,我不仅对MAGA、特朗普主义和唐纳德·特朗普政府感到震惊——他们的越界行为、腐败和公然虚伪——而且我也对自己党内的领导层感到愤怒,”她在竞选期间告诉CNN。

Malinowski是一名温和派,过去曾获支持,但随着民主党在2023年10月7日哈马斯袭击以色列后对以色列政府的怀疑加剧,他表示愿意调整对以色列的援助条件。

与此同时,在候选人论坛上,当被问及是否同意人权组织称以色列在加沙犯下种族灭绝罪时,只有Mejia举手表示同意。

一名接近AIPAC的消息人士告诉CNN,他们担心Malinowski以其资历和长期职业生涯的可能性,对以色列盟友而言比进步派的Mejia更不利,因为他们认为Mejia影响力较小。

该消息人士还表示,他们正在密切评估是否在6月的下一届两年任期初选中,或11月的大选中再次花钱投放广告。

United Democracy Project周三在伊利诺伊州第7选区推出新广告活动,支持Melissa Conyears-Ervin。

在新泽西州的民主党初选中,除Mejia和Malinowski外,排名第三的是前副州长Tahesha Way和埃塞克斯县专员Brendan Gill,选票上共有十多名民主党候选人。

Mejia将在4月16日的大选中面对共和党候选人、伦道夫镇议会成员Joe Hathaway(他在共和党初选中无对手),而该选区在2024年支持前副总统Kamala Harris的优势达近9个百分点,因此她被看好。

Analilia Mejia will win the special primary in New Jersey’s 11th Congressional District in a tight race over former Rep. Tom Malinowski, a major win for an ally of Sen. Bernie Sanders and other progressives.

Malinowski conceded on Tuesday in a statement in which he gave Mejia “unequivocal credit for running a positive campaign and for inspiring so many voters on Election Day.”

Projected Winner

Notably, Malinowski blamed the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, which helped fund a group that spent roughly $2 million on ads targeting him. The group, United Democracy Project, sought in its ads to portray Malinowski as supportive of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement, pointing to a 2019 vote for a bipartisan spending bill that provided funding to the agency.

Ad Feedback

“I wanted so much to be able to tell you today that this effort, which was meant to intimidate Democrats across the country, failed in NJ-11,” Malinowski said in his statement. “But the huge difference between the early vote, which we were winning comfortably, and the Election Day vote, suggests that it had a major effect. I met several voters in the final days of the campaign who had seen the ads and asked me, sincerely: ‘Are you MAGA? Are you for ICE?’”

Thursday’s primary to replace now-Gov. Mikie Sherrill was seen as an early testing ground for the debates that will shape the Democratic push to retake the US House in this year’s midterms.

A win by Mejia, who served as political director on Sen. Bernie Sanders’ 2020 presidential campaign, is a major success for national progressive leaders who had backed her run, like Sanders as well as Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren and New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Mejia was the former head of the Working Families Alliance in New Jersey and is currently serving as one of the executive directors of Popular Democracy, a network of grassroots organizations.

“Like many Democrats in this moment, I am not only appalled at MAGA, at Trumpism, at Donald Trump’s administration – their overreach, their corruption, their blatant hypocrisy – but I’m also ticked off at my own Democratic leadership,” she told CNN during the campaign.

Malinowski is a moderate who had been supported in the past but expressed openness for conditioning aid to Israel as the national Democratic Party shows more skepticism about the Israeli government in the wake of its offensive following Hamas’ October 7, 2023, attacks.

Mejia, meanwhile, was the only person at a candidate forum who raised her hand when asked if she agreed with human rights groups that say Israel has committed a genocide in Gaza.

A source close to AIPAC told CNN that there was concern that Malinowski, with his profile, seniority, and likelihood of a long career, would be worse for Israel allies than a progressive in Mejia who they see as less influential.

The source also says they are assessing closely whether to spend money and run ads again in the district in June, when there will be a primary for the next two-year term, or in the November general election.

United Democracy Project launched a new ad campaign Wednesday in Illinois’ 7th District backing Melissa Conyears-Ervin.

Trailing the top two vote-getters in New Jersey were former Lt. Gov. Tahesha Way and Essex County commissioner Brendan Gill, among a ballot of more than a dozen Democratic primary candidates.

Meija will face Republican Randolph Township councilman Joe Hathaway, who ran unopposed, in the general election on April 16, and will be favored in a district that voted for former Vice President Kamala Harris by nearly nine percentage points in 2024.
