Congratulations Senator Booker! I don't always agree with you, but mostly I do and I'm proud to have you as the next Dem in the US Senate!
The final vote wasn't even close:
With 55 percent of the precincts reporting, Mr. Booker had 55 percent of the vote to 44 percent for Steve Lonegan, a Republican former mayor of Bogota, N.J., and state director of the conservative group Americans for Prosperity, according to The Associated Press.
Chalk up another loss for Teahadists tonight!!
In case you're wondering, Booker is the ninth African American U.S. Senator, and the seventh since Reconstruction.
