Democrats deny Republicans a chance for major upset in New Jersey as Booker wins

Fox News has called the New Jersey Senate race for incumbent Democrat Cory Booker.

A win by challenger Justin Murphy would have been considered a massive GOP upset in the deep blue state.

Booker has been in office since 2013. Murphy is a navy veteran who is an attorney and the former deputy mayor for Tabernacle Township.

Booker ran unopposed in the primary.

New Jersey hasn’t elected a Republican to the U.S. Senate since 1972.
