The 2024 New Jersey's 10th congressional district special election will be held on September 18, 2024, to fill the vacant seat in New Jersey's 10th congressional district. The winner will serve in the United States House of Representatives for the remainder of the 118th United States Congress. The seat became vacant on April 24, 2024, when Donald Payne Jr. died following a heart attack related to complications from diabetes.[1] The urban district is considered a safely Democratic seat, as Donald Payne Jr. was elected with 77.6% of the vote in 2022.
On May 3, Governor Phil Murphy scheduled the special election for September 18, with primaries being held on July 16. This will be the first non-November special election for a vacant House seat in New Jersey since 1950 which Republican William Widnall won after incumbent Representative J. Parnell Thomas was convicted on corruption charges.[2]
