New Jersey's 6th Congressional District
New Jersey's 6th congressional district is represented by Democrat Frank Pallone, who has served the district in Congress since 1993. The district includes the northern and eastern portions of Middlesex County and the coastal areas of Monmouth County, including towns along the Raritan Bay. Under the 2020 census map, the 6th district will remain very similar to its prior configuration. Notably, it will gain the liberal-leaning Neptune Township, Neptune City, and Red Bank, while losing the more conservative Marlboro Township, among other minor changes. According to estimates from The Cook Political Report, the district will become slightly more Democratic.
