“I was very pleased by the high turnout at the convention,” Warren County Democratic Committee Chairman Tom Palmieri told InsiderNJ. “I think all of the candidates acquitted themselves well.”

Malinowski now has two open convention victories in his column (Hunterdon and Warren), while Berkeley Banker Linder Weber has two lines (Somerset and Essex).

“I don’t see the loser in Union conceding,” said Palmieri, referring to that county’s coming pow-wow in that county for the line in that part of the district that is home to five of the six remaining candidates: all but Malinowski.
