NJ-02: Atlantic Democratic chair endorses Tim Alexander

Civil rights attorney Tim Alexander, now on his third campaign for New Jersey’s 2nd congressional district, got an important endorsement today from the man who leads the district’s largest Democratic organization.

Atlantic County Democratic Chairman Michael Suleiman said that of the four Democrats running against Rep. Jeff Van Drew (R-Dennis), Alexander “has earned strong support and trust at the local level.” Suleiman cautioned, however, that his endorsement comes in his personal capacity, and the Atlantic County Democrats will be able to make their own decision when they hold their convention next March.

“Tim’s strong name recognition throughout the 2nd district, coupled with his grassroots support across all six counties, makes him a strong candidate to flip this seat,” Suleiman said in a statement. “I’ve known Tim and his wife Anna to be consistently tenacious advocates and organizers for downballot Democrats all across South Jersey. In speaking with Tim, he assured me that his campaign will adopt a more direct and no-nonsense approach to communication, while prioritizing fundraising efforts to support the effective delivery of his message.”

Alexander, a Galloway resident, received the endorsement of the Atlantic County Democrats during both his 2022 and 2024 campaigns, and is the early favorite to do so once again this year.
