Jeff Grayzel profile: NJ-11 candidate in 2026

The NJ-11 race

Jeff Grayzel, a Democrat, is running for the U.S. House in New Jersey’s 11th Congressional District. The contested general election is scheduled for Nov. 3, 2026.

The field includes 18 candidates: 15 Democrats, one Republican, one independent and one candidate whose affiliation is listed as UN. Mikie Sherrill and Analilia Mejia are identified as incumbents. Each candidate’s party or affiliation appears below exactly as listed in the official records.

Biographies and policy positions

Official records list no candidate biography for Grayzel or any of the other 17 candidates. They also list no documented policy positions for anyone in the race. As a result, no position on taxes, health care, immigration, abortion, foreign policy or any other issue can be attributed to Grayzel or another candidate from these records.

A party label identifies a candidate’s political affiliation, but it does not establish that candidate’s position on a specific issue. The records currently establish the candidates’ names, affiliations, incumbent designations, campaign financial activity and the general election date.
