TRENTON, N.J. (AP) — Former congressman Tom Malinowski conceded on Tuesday to Analilia Mejia, a longtime progressive activist and former political director for Sen. Bernie Sanders, in the crowded Democratic primary in New Jersey’s U.S. House special election. The special election is being held to fill the seat vacated when Mikie Sherrill stepped down to become governor. “I look forward to supporting her in the April general election,” Malinowski said in a statement.
