  • Can Murphy Break the Curse?
    This issue brought to you by New Jersey Governor: Can Murphy Break The Curse? By Jacob Rubashkin FEBRUARY 5, 2021 VOLUME 5, NO. 3 Not long ago, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie was riding the wave of a re-election win into a top-tier presidential bid. A few years later, politics on the ground have shifted, and Garden State Republicans are grasping 2022 Senate Ratings for power, just hoping to stay competitive in this year’s gubernatorial contest. BATTLEGROUND New Jersey is one of two states (Virginia is the other) that will elect a Democratic-Held (4) Republican-Held (4) governor this year, posing as the appetizer for 2022, when 36 states will Cortez Masto (D-Nev.) NC Open (Burr, R) host a gubernatorial election. Politicos will be looking at both 2021 races Hassan (D-N.H.) PA Open (Toomey, R) for any clues about the national political environment for the midterms, Kelly (D-Ariz.) Johnson (R-Wisc.) including whether the party in power will suffer from the health or Warnock (D-Ga.) Rubio (R-Fl.) economic effects of Covid-19. Solid Democratic (10) Solid Republican (16) Lay of the Land Bennet (D-Colo.) OH Open (Portman, R) New Jersey is a Democratic state. With the exception of 2004, when Blumenthal (D-Conn.) Blunt (R-Mo.) John Kerry won the state by a vanishingly narrow 7 percent, every Duckworth (D-Ill.) Boozman (R-Ark.) Democratic presidential candidate since 2000 has won the state by between Padilla (D-Calif.) Crapo (R-Idaho) 14 points (Hillary Clinton in 2016) and 17 points (President Barack Obama Leahy (D-Vt.) Grassley (R-Iowa) in 2012), regardless of national environment.

Alex is our best shot at replacing Ron Johnson in Washington and is clearly the candidate that will be a major champion for labor in the Senate. “Our unionizing efforts with Alex and the Bucks was one of the most open, pro-union experiences we have ever had with an employer. Alex opened the doors for us to use card check during the organizing process, and the Bucks immediately recognized the signed cards and agreed to neutrality. IATSE handed the cards in, they were counted, we had a majority, and the Bucks recognized IATSE. “None of this would have happened without Alex’s leadership.” The historic agreement to unionize Fiserv Forum stagehands went into effect on June 1, 2019. Prior to the enactment of this agreement, the stagehands at the Bradley Center were not unionized. "I couldn’t be more pleased to have been endorsed by IATSE Local 18," said Alex Lasry.
