In NJ, Republicans sought to merge two coalitions that had brought them close in recent statewide elections. But they got neither. My NJ post-mortem for NBC News: (Link in next tweet)

New Jersey municipalities that are 60%+ Hispanic where we currently have results:

Hudson County, NJ, home to several heavily Hispanic cities, loomed as a test of whether Ciattarelli could hold onto significant nonwhite gains that Trump made last year: 2020: Biden +46 2021: Murphy +48 2024: Harris +28 Tonight: Sherrill +49

Gloucester County, epicenter of the South Jersey red wave that toppled the state Senate President and nearly vaulted Ciattarelli to victory in 2021, returns to the Democratic fold with Sherrill carrying it by 4 points.

Hunterdon County -- 2nd highest median income, highest % of college+ whites in NJ: 2021: Ciattarelli +19 2024: Trump +7 Tonight: Ciattarelli +5 Lots of College+ anti-Trump voters were happy to vote for Ciattarelli when Trump was an ex-president -- but not now that he's back

With more than 80% of the vote in, Cuomo is losing 50-41%. When his father, Mario Cuomo, waged a third party mayoral bid after losing the Democratic primary in 1977, he lost to Ed Koch by...50-41%.

Exit poll: If only Cuomo and Mamdani were running for mayor, would you: Vote for Mamdani 47% Vote for Cuomo 44% Not sure 6%

Both Jack Ciattarelli in ‘21 and Trump in ‘24 improved dramatically on Trump’s 2020 performance in NJ — but they did it with very different voters in very different places: (Full analysis ⬇️)

Our NBC News Decision Desk poll asked Gen Z adults (18-29 years old) what they consider important to a successful life. The combination of gender and politics produced two very different sets of priorities:

History is pretty bleak for Republicans trying to preserve their razor-thin House majority, but if there's any encouraging midterm precedent for them it might be the most recent one.
