Phil Murphy could win Morris County, the first Democratic gubernatorial nominee to win red Morris in a long time.
Interesting. Do you have an idea on how folks in Morris feel about this race?
I know a couple of people from Morris, it's a wealthy, Wall Street trader suburban bedroom community place, and it's also Christie's home. Murphy could win the county if Guadagno gets low and unenthusiastic turnout from the GOP. I don't think Trump supporters would vote for her.
I live in Morris and I would believe there are lots of typically wealthy, well-educated people around here that could be swayed to the Dems nationally under certain circumstances (i.e. Clinton v Trump) but would never vote for the state Dems bc of property taxes and state Dems being associated with "urban", "ghetto" (i.e. Black and Hispanic) areas of the state like Newark and Paterson, with many of the older residents being white flight "refugees" from those areas. But if Trumpist and general Republican enthusiasm is low and Dem enthusiasm is high, as seems likely will be the case, then I could see it flipping.
