Democrats have successfully flipped a seat in New Jersey’s General Assembly in a a deep-red district that has not elected a Democratic legislator in three decades.
Decision Desk HQ projects that Democrat Avi Schnall has won a seat in the assembly, unseating incumbent Republican Assemblyman Ned Thomson. Voters in each New Jersey legislative district choose two assembly members to represent them, so the contest was a four-way race featuring two Democrats and two Republicans.
Schnall was elected alongside incumbent Republican Assemblyman Sean Kean in the 30th district.
If he votes too much with the Republicans he’ll lose party support. There’s a reason party members tend to vote the same. Without party support he’ll have a hard time getting reelected in a red district unless he flips parties again.
Unfortunately, the DNC has a real problem with extreme far-right infiltrators who wear the D but only actively support fascist GOP policies and agendas.
Yeah? Examples? I can think of two senators. That’s about it.
I guess we’ll see, huh? Just hope he realizes people are paying attention. Smart ones, anyway.
