1. That's my 'former' assemblyman

And friend Andrew! We are thrilled about this. We know Freiman is pretty solid for the win, and Jaffer is right behind him.

This will be the first time since we bought out in Hunterdon County that we will have a straight up the line Democratic rep.

So MUCH can now be done with Andrew in that seat.

Example - a beer/wine license at the table for those boroughs that have NO liquor licenses. Can't be pursued in large cities towns - strictly to encourage service industry openings and make main street come alive.

Andrew is down with this - and can get it done!

4. He's a really great guy, and gave me great personal insight...

...on the process for applications for internships at national laboratories, which helped me advise my son on how to apply to Oak Ridge.

Dr. Zwicker moderates the popular Science on Saturday series at PPNL each winter and has done so through his tenure in the State Assembly. I don't know I'd this promotion will affect his tenure there.

If so New Jersey wins what the SOS loses. He's very good as moderator host. His first foray into politics was in the Democratic Primary to replace Rush Holt when Dr. Holt decided to not run again.

I had a nice long chat with him at a local event then. I liked him and voted for him in the Primary, even I wasn't totally impressed with his views on how to address climate change.

9. Because corporate media declared it.

They were watching just one race (VA Governor), which the party in the White House has historically lost, so that result shouldn't have been a big surprise.

8. This is good to hear

... mainly because of this - https://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/trucker-ousts-nj-senate-president-in-upset-election-win/3032344/

Democrats dominate both chambers of the NJ legislature in any case.
