Riiiight… Voters are rejecting President Trump's agenda, and therefore, him.

• Two New Jersey Congressional districts flipped to Republican.
• Texas banned state income taxes.
• Kentucky Republicans swept statewide races except the Governor, taking the Attorney General office for the first time since 1944 with Kentucky's first black Attorney General.
• Tucson rejected sanctuary city status.
• Washington state rejected affirmative action, which would allow characteristics such as race, sex, color, ethnicity, national origin, age, sexual orientation, disability, or veteran status to be used as factors when considering a person for public education or public employment opportunities.

Two New Jersey Congressional districts flipped to Republican.

You might want to delete this and post it correctly. It is patently false. There were NO Congressional elections in New Jersey in 2019.

Two things happened in New Jersey this week:

1. There were no regular state Senate elections, but there was one special election to replace a former Democratic state Senator who had left the Senate when he won a formerly Republican seat in the U.S. House of Representative. The Republican won this special election.

2. The Democrats came into this election with large majorities in both the Senate and the Assembly. They lost one Senate seat in the aforementioned special election. Some of the Assembly races are too close to call, but it looks like the GOP has picked up 2 to 5 seats in the Assembly.

These aren't huge victories, since the Democrats still hold majorities in both houses of the legislature.
