Dems Pour Money Into New Jersey Race Thought Safe
A national Democratic group has been pouring money on a southern New Jersey congressional race thought to be safe, even though a neighboring district is considered competitive — the sort of place where the candidate can use all the help she can get.
Sometimes, decisions like that can signal that internal polls view a competitive race as out of reach.

“House Majority PAC has received a number of donations to be spent in support of Donald Norcross to make sure this seat stays in Democratic hands,” said the D.C.-based PAC.
The group has spent $238,000 this month supporting Norcross, with spending that by law cannot be coordinated with the campaign.
