In NJ dems gained a senate seat and 5 assembly seats. In VA dems flipped no senate seats and with two races left to call, most likely flipped 4 house seats. Dems also didn't win a single seat that voted for Biden by under 9 points in VA and only won some heavily hispanic seats by underwhelming margins (a warning sign for 2024), while in NJ their revenge against the guy who unseated thir senate leader in 2021 worked and they even won a Trump+30 seat thanks to orthodox jews. Keep in mind both State Senates have the same size and NJ assembly has 80 seats while VA house has 100. Sure one was a flip and the other only adds to their majority but it seems clear to me that NJ dems did quite better than VA dems who continue to be one of their most incompetent state parties.
