Will the Democratic Party win the NJ-05 House seat? Prediction Market OddsDemocrats are expected to win New Jersey’s 5th Congressional District in the 2026 midterm elections, positioning the party to retain a key House seat in the northern part of the state. The district, which includes portions of Bergen, Passaic and Sussex counties, has remained a competitive but Democratic-leaning battleground in recent cycles.
The result would help Democrats defend their standing in New Jersey’s congressional delegation as both parties compete for control of the U.S. House. The 2026 midterms, scheduled for November 4, are expected to draw national attention as voters deliver their first congressional verdict of the next presidential term.
