NJ-02: Van Drew considering switching parties.

[RandySF]

“President Trump on Friday personally urged a vocally anti-impeachment Democrat, Rep. Jeff Van Drew (D-NJ), to switch parties — a request he is now believed to be strongly considering,” the Washington Post reports.

“The meeting was confirmed by a Trump administration official and a congressional official with knowledge of the White House conversation.”

New York Times: “Mr. Van Drew has had discussions with senior Trump advisers about securing the president’s support for his switch, a blessing that could help him avert a primary challenge next year in what would be his new party.”
