    Umm, I may have to give up. I don't know that many live US politicians, let alone republicans under the gae of 40.

    The only "young" Republican I knew was Scott Walker, and he is both in elected office and too old.

    You're not supposed to do any research for this game. You have to go just by what's in your head.

    Just this once, though, I'll spot you a DQ. I don't know the chair of the NJ GOP.

    Well if you are supposed to work it out without research, I may have to give up. The answer to the above is Jay Webber

    If you have any clues going they would be useful, otherwise, I have honestly no idea.

    Can you check if this person is known outside of the US?
