Just can't keep those NJ progressives down

Stephen Roach Knight @knightopia 10h
Phil Murphy wins re-election as governor in NJ, holding off the right-wing Republican racist hate storm by *checks notes* being a race-forward progressive.

David Rothkopf @djrothkopf 2h
Of course this could be: Murphy becomes first Dem to win reelection as NJ gov in 44 yrs-alongside progressive win in Boston, Biden supporter mayoral win in NY, wave of elections of Dem candidates of color in cities across the US. But, you know...Virginia is where DC press lives.





...first two-term senator in 44 years, rallied in the campaign with Bernie. Took the state back from Chris Christie and passed some of the most progressive legislation in the country.
