... he does not automatically become Senate President ...

Yes, and I never implied differently BUT even as a newb in the legislature, he will be a bit of "fish out of water"! Most of his fellow freshman colleagues will have political experience in local office / elected positions. I have only the best wishes for him but there is a cesspit at every door, especially for NJ!

His best bet would be to get the best possible staff ASAP!

William Natcher was a long-time Congressman in Kentucky who used to spend almost nothing on his re-election campaigns...but he was well-known in his district, not a political newcomer.

This man will need our prayers. Conservatives enter politics with good intentions and are bamboozled by members of their own party into going along to get along. Politics is a dirty game.

I read somewhere that Murphy may have been behind this somehow. Maybe by encouraging his folks to stay home or vote for Ed.

I guess the manufactured found ballots were unable to stand scrutiny.

It never occurred to NJ democrats that anyone would actually LOOK at them.
