It’s tough to say who could win this New Jersey State Senate Race. Initially, it was called for the Senate President, Steve Sweeney, and the New Jersey Globe had to retract their call as it was too close. The Globe had to report:
Update: This race call was retracted at 1:11 a.m., after it became clear all three Democrats stood a strong chance of losing. David Wildstein tweeted:
“This looks like an upset in the making: Senate President Steve Sweeney is trailing by 1,880 votes — to a Republican named Edward Durr. This race is now too close to call.”
