there were other big winners and losers as well, sweeny was a huge winner. bill: does this show, a lot of people want to call this a referendum on president trump, but you look at new jersey, murphy was 30 points ahead, a closer margin, but in ey in a be state. i would say, given fact that murphy spent more than $20 million to win primary, kim did okay. >> she did a great job, she was always underdog in the race, new jersey has 800,000 more registered democrats than republicans. 8 years of a republican governor, i can't remember last time voters elected party there are three consecutive terms, i think that kim did a great job, she is say strong campaigner, a bright political future. bill: when do democrats turn on each other to fight over the

spoils. democratic governor, promising to raise taxes and allege lature who has tried to raise taxes, and chris christie vetoed time after time, now they have a blank check. >> i hope you will see democrats come together and work across aisle, but i remind you -- >> do they need to. >> democrat shut down government in first 6 months of john corzine's term. bill: a valid point. >> how is he going to govern. bill: it republican party dead in new jersey. >> no. bill: why not. >> i think they will continue, we go back and forth, we had 8 years of republican governor, half congressional delegation is republican, i am not going to count the republican party out. bill: all right, i'll say, leave it there, but as it taxpayer in new jersey, we have a lot to look forward to, we hope. but bottom line is, you have a democratic governor, and a

democratic lead legislature looking to raise taxes, i am not sure that new jersey will get more affordable, tune in tomorrow morning. for my morning show, we'll break down details of the results and what it means to you and your bank account, see you tomorrow, thanks for watching. >> some things that can be done. >> take them identify subway, ridiculous. >> spending taxpayer dollars to reward prisoners. >> positive reinforcement works.
