That's A Wrap
My colleagues Geoffrey, Nathaniel and Ryan posted earlier this evening about how the New Jersey governor’s race was Murphy’s to lose, as much of the outstanding vote was concentrated in Democratic areas of the state, and you should read that recap for a better understanding of how Murphy pulled off what looks to be a narrow victory.
We still don’t have all of the expected vote in — 87 percent per ABC News’s latest batch of election data — but ABC News can project that Murphy will win reelection in New Jersey, joining the AP in calling the race for Murphy.
As such, we’ll be shuttering our live blog coverage of the 2021 elections, and focusing our analysis elsewhere on what Tuesday’s elections can — and can’t — tell us about the national environment heading into the 2022 midterm elections.
Thanks as always for following along.
