Is NJ solidly Democratic yet?

[zachman]

In the Dukakis blowout in 88', the dems lost NJ by 14%. Although this was not a typical election, Dukakis did carry Oregon, West Virginia and the upper-midwest, while losing the mid-atlantic Connecticut and Northern New England. NJ barely chose Clinton over Bush in 92'. I think NJ could be a swing state if the Republicans ran a Northern, or Western candidate who is a social moderate.
