East Brunswick NJ , Darius Mayfield was overwhelmingly chosen by the Mercer County GOP to represent them in New Jersey’s 12th Congressional district. This nomination is further proof that our current leadership is broken, and people are ready for change. Honored to earn the support of the Mercer County GOP, it fills Darius’s heart that he has the support, not only on a grassroots level, but also the support of the establishment.
New Jersey’s 12th congressional district is represented by Democrat Bonnie Watson Coleman, who has served in Congress since 2015. The district is known for its research centers and educational institutions such as Princeton University, Rider University, The College of New Jersey, Institute for Advanced Study, Johnson & Johnson and Bristol-Myers Squibb. The district is primarily suburban in character, though it contains the state capital of Trenton as well as the smaller city of Plainfield
“A special thank you to Lisa Richford, Dave Henderson, Mark Bovenizer, Dudley Sipprelle, John Hart, Ed Jacowski, and everyone else who made this possible and voted for me,” said Darius. Darius’s motto rings true as cities, towns, and neighborhoods come together as Americans, to move our collective agenda forward. Not Black. Not White. American!
Darius is honored to represent Mercer County and is proud of the campaign’s profound accomplishments thus far.
