ABERDEEN, NJ — Tuesday, June 4 was Primary Election Day.

Here are the preliminary results in the U.S. presidential primary, U.S. Senate and Congress races.

Congressman Frank Pallone, who represents NJ's Sixth Congressional district, was challenged by John Hsu. Hsu, a climate change activist who was a main campaigner for Bernie Sanders NJ in 2020, ran as a more liberal, progressive candidate than Pallone, who has long been part of the Democratic establishment.
