Do you see Republicans gaining seats in NJ Assembly this November ? this is Christie's second term midterm legislative election. Ultimate   Assembly composition?  


Republicans won more votes than Democrats in legislative elections in 2013, when the Governor won 60% of the vote. The GOP won 53% of the votes cast in legislative races that year. The districts are gerrymandered and Christie's approval is well below 50%. So, no.


I won't deny the map favors Democrats, but the real factor here is turnout being so much lower in city districts than in Republican exurban districts.
