Former LoBiondo Challengers Endorse Bill Hughes for Congress

Hughes announced endorsements from Cassandra Shober, David Kurkowski, Viola-Thomas-Hughes and Edward Janosik Wednesday morning.

Democrat Bill Hughes Jr. announced the endorsement of four former challengers to Congressman Frank LoBiondo on his campaign's Facebook page Wednesday morning.

Hughes announced endorsements from Cassandra Shober, David Kurkowski, Viola-Thomas-Hughes and Edward Janosik.

"These men and women campaigned with distinction and integrity for U.S. Congress and I am humbled to know they believe I have the experience and judgment necessary to carry on that tradition here in South Jersey," Hughes said in making his announcement.

Hughes challenges incumbent LoBiondo for the Second Congressional District seat in a race that will receive national attention from Democrats.

The district is made up of all of Atlantic, Cape May, Salem and Cumberland counties, as well as parts of Ocean, Burlington and Gloucester counties, and Waterford Works in Camden County.
