100% of New Jersey LCV Endorsed Incumbent Environmental Champions Are Re-Elected in NJ Assembly Race

Trenton - After an extremely tight race in LD 2, which covers Atlantic County, it’s been announced that Assemblymen Mazzeo and Armato can declare victory and officially keep their seats in the New Jersey legislature. Both candidates were among the 28 incumbents endorsed by New Jersey LCV in the 2019 Assembly race, which brings their number of incumbent winners up to a full 100%. 

Ed Potosnak, Executive Director of the New Jersey League of Conservation Voters, released the following statement on this development:

“New Jersey LCV has officially accomplished what we set out to do in this race: defend our environmental champion incumbents to make sure we can continue our work with them in the upcoming years to make New Jersey one of the most sustainable and healthy states in the country. Our $60,000 campaign protected all 28 incumbents who have led the push to transform environmental policies in Trenton. We knocked on thousands of doors, called thousands of conservation voters, advertised online and sent mailers to tens of thousands of families. It’s safe to say now that all of that hard work has paid off.”

New Jersey League of Conservation Voters is a non-partisan organization whose mission is to
elect environmental champions, hold public officials accountable, and support laws which
protect our environment and improve the quality of people’s lives.
