Democratic donors are invading the streets of New York and New Jersey. Will the votes follow?

Sherrill, a former naval pilot and federal prosecutor, is also favored in the northern New Jersey district by another retired Republican, Rodney Frelinghuysen. She raised more than $ 2 million more than the Republican in this race.

The two New Jersey Democrats running against the Republican MPs, Mr. Kim in the Third District and Mr. Malinowski in the Seventh, raised $ 2.3 million each. For Kim this is $ 1 million more than the representative Tom MacArthur; Mr. Malinowski has quadrupled the $ 562,000 Republican MP that he defies, Leonard Lance.

On the financial side, Donovan, whose district includes Staten Island and parts of Brooklyn, is perhaps the most troubled Republican president in the region. He had only $ 277,000 in the bank, compared to $ 1.4 million for his Democratic rival, Max Rose, a veteran who promoted TV advertising as a less partisan character by criticizing Mayor Bill. of Blasio.

Donovan came out of a grueling Republican primary in June with Michael Grimm, his predecessor, who had tried to make an unlikely political comeback after serving his sentence in prison. The 11th district has been revealed elusive for Democrats, who could not overthrow Mr Grimm in 2014 despite the cloud of a federal indictment of 20 heads of state. charge at the time.

In the Buffalo area, Rep. Chris Collins is attempting to achieve the same feat as Mr. Grimm after he was indicted for insider trading in August. Although he initially announced that he would not run again, Collins resumed his campaign in September. Fundraising is almost frozen since his indictment, but he still has $ 1 million in his treasure and is independently wealthy.

Collins' Democratic challenger, Nate McMurray, had barely amassed the indictment, but had raised more than $ 500,000 in the last three months.

While the Democratic wave of money seemed to raise almost all of the candidates, a significant incumbent remained: Senator Robert Menendez, who was accused of corruption by the federal government last year, resulting in a lawsuit for annulment. He has announced $ 2.1 million in contributions over the last three months – less than three of the Democratic House nominees in his home country, even as Mr. Menendez faces a daunting challenge from Bob Hugin, a pharmaceutical executive who is pouring millions of dollars into the race. .
