New Jersey is liberal anyway, but I think we will have to run candidates that fit the district. If it’s a pro-Trump state/district, run someone who is pro-Trump. If it’s a more liberal district and the best we can get is establishment (and that’s generally better than a Democrat...but not always), then that person may have to distance themselves from Trump.
If this was true, then Jeff Flake would be ahead in the polls coasting to an easy re-election.
