Accessed November 12, 2025. "Vincent Kearney, a two-term councilman from Garwood and a Union County Sheriff’s officer, has emerged as a candidate for State Assembly in the politically competitive 21st district.... The 21st district, which includes parts of Union, Somerset, Morris, and Middlesex counties, has been on the Democratic target list on and off since 2017. Still, Republicans have prevailed in the last four elections, sometimes by narrow margins. In 2024, Kamala Harris carried the 21st over Donald Trump by more than 17,000 votes and about fourteen percentage points – roughly three points less than Joe Biden in 2020, putting Muñoz and Matsikoudis in a potentially tough race next year."
