Races we watched
Ballotpedia identified five races to watch in the New Jersey State Senate 2017 elections: four Democratic seats and one Republican seat. Based on analysis of these districts' electoral histories, these races had the potential to be more competitive than other races and could possibly have led to shifts in a chamber's partisan balance.
This district was a Race to Watch because the incumbent won less than 55 percent of the vote in the most recent general election prior to 2017. District 18 incumbent Patrick Diegnan Jr. (D) was appointed to the New Jersey State Senate on May 9, 2016, to fill a vacancy and won election to the seat in a special election on November 8, 2016. Diegnan won that election over Roger Daley with 61 percent of the vote. Diegnan's predecessor, however—Peter Barnes, III (D)—won election to the District 18 seat in 2013 with a margin of victory of 3.9 points. He received 51.9 percent to Republican David Stahl's 48.1 percent. District 18 was one of 28 New Jersey state legislative districts that Democrat Hillary Clinton won in the 2016 presidential election. Clinton carried District 18 by 20.6 points. Democrat Barack Obama won the seat in the 2012 presidential election by 22.6 points. As of 2017, District 18 covered Middlesex County.
