Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) has filed to run as an independent, but Republicans hope they'll split the vote enough to give Bashaw a path to victory.
Bashaw is the first openly gay Republican to be a major party nominee for a Senate seat in New Jersey .
The seat went to Sen. Menendez by almost 10 percentage points in 2018 .
Businessman Curtis Bashaw launched his race against Sen. Menendez in January after Menendez 's October 2023 allegations of attempting to aid Egypt ’s government.
The businessman is known for founding Cape Resorts , a chain of hotels in Cape May , New Jersey , and on Long Island , New York .
He said he liked the contrast between himself and his opponents, Kim Kim and Menendez .
Bashaw said Kim votes “very far out there,” seemingly saying the representative is as far-left as a Progressive Caucus member.
While Kim appears to be the favorite in November ’s election, Bashaw will look to contest the Democrat in the closest Senate race in the state since 2000 .
