The daughter of a Holocaust survivor, a gay man in a conservative-leaning area, and a Black woman from California — all are among the nearly two dozen Jews who are hoping to enter Congress next year.

Among the 47 Jewish nominees for the U.S. House of Representatives are 22 incumbents — 21 Democrats and a single Republican. (Five Jewish incumbents retired or lost a primary this cycle.) The remaining 25 are challengers or running in open seats. Using a number of nonpartisan sources, including the Cook Political Report and 270 to Win, we’ve selected what we believe are the 10 who have the best chance of being elected this fall. (No guarantees though!) Nine are Democrats and one is Republican. https://www.jta.org/2022/10/27/politics/meet-10-jewish-candidates-who-could-be-elected-to-congress-for-the-first-time-this-fall
