BREAKING: Democrat Philip Murphy wins reelection for governor in New Jersey. #APracecall at 6:26 p.m. EDT. #Election2021 #NJelection
New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy won reelection in close race against Republican challenger Jack Ciattarelli. His victory spares Democrats the loss of a 2nd gubernatorial seat. apne.ws/0wJ58is
Ciattarelli waged a formidable campaign in the deep blue state. His spending nearly equaled Murphy's and outpaced the GOP's performance 4 years ago.
Murphy's advantages, including 1 million more registered Democrats, proved too much to overcome. apne.ws/Ey8h4N0
Murphy became the state's first Democratic governor to get a second straight term in 44 years. apne.ws/wDKJVv6
Murphy says his next term will focus on codifying abortion rights in the state as well as additional gun control laws and an expansion of taxpayer-financed pre-K for 3-year-olds. apne.ws/klEUcOc

Minneapolis voters reject replacing its police department with a new public safety unit. The result comes more than a year after George Floyd’s death launched a movement to defund or abolish police across the country. apne.ws/Kn210ly
The debate brought national attention to the election, as well as a river of out-of-state money seeking to influence a contest that could shape changes in policing elsewhere, too. apne.ws/7bXATQL
The ballot proposal had roots in the abolish-the-police movement that erupted after Floyd was killed by a Minneapolis police officer last year. The debate over racial justice in policing brought national attention to Tuesday’s vote. apne.ws/sPP649N
