Friend,

Welcome back to another edition of our weekly Kean for Congress newsletter update. 

Tomorrow is the June 4th Primary Election! As I have said in each update - EVERY. DAY. COUNTS. - and every day has counted for the Kean for Congress team so far. I look forward to sharing some of the fantastic field updates below and how we spent our GOTV weekend.

Tomorrow is also you last chance to cast your ballot for Tom Kean, Jr. and the Republican Team ✅! Vote-by-mail ballots must be post marked by tomorrow or put into a dropbox by 8:00pm to be counted, or you can vote in person at your normal polling locations. Details and helpful links can be found in the Voter Resources section below, or by clicking this link.

This week, our team was busy once again launching into the field, hosting phone banks, and onboarding more revved up volunteers! We had another record week of phone calls and door knocking made by volunteers, breaking our standing 2024 records across the board. Read more below to stay up-to-date on everything Kean for Congress has been up to!

Field Update

Since my last update, our field teams and volunteers launched door knocking efforts in Raritan Township, Raritan Borough, Readington, Westfield, Chester Borough, Lebanon, The Town of Clinton, Hackettstown, Bedminster, Mendham Borough, Warren Township, Flemington, and Mountainside - just to name a few! We are excited to see the results of our team's hard work this coming Tuesday.

Kean for Congress held our weekly phone banks in Somerset, Hunterdon, and Morris counties. We reached out to voters who still had outstanding vote-by-mail ballots, as well as primary voters to discuss the importance of this Tuesday's Primary. Our efforts have paid off, as in NJ07, the Republican return rate percentage of Vote-By-Mail ballots is currently outpacing Democrat returns! We will keep up this great momentum in the fall.

The phone banks resulted in an additional 12,000 calls made to voters ahead of the primary. We couldn't do it without our dedicated team of volunteers! We are hosting our final GOTV phone bank tonight in Somerset county to finish our outstanding calls lists to head to the polls!

Our GOTV door knocking push helped reach over 4,000 households this weekend. Did we knock on your door? Say "Hi" if you see any of our team out today who will be out walking for one final push!

The Kean Classic Collection

Team Kean is releasing a limited-edition Kean campaign collectors’ item from the vault.

Allow us to introduce…

We have exactly 125 of these specialty hats that represent the consistent leadership that Congressman Kean has demonstrated since he’s taken office, and we want you to grab one before they are all claimed.

These particular hats are very special to Congressman Kean for a few reasons. He picked them to unveil as a specialty item to not only rally support for his upcoming re-election, but also to give a nod to the past leadership from his father and grandfathers before him who represented New Jersey with tremendous class, hard-work, and decency.

Don’t miss out on this special limited-time hat from the classic collection. By securing one today, you will be representing and supporting the very best leadership (past and present) that New Jersey has to offer.
