Maybe Hoboken is the next Nutley where its was a Dem town but now Nutley is trending Republican at least it was from the 2008 stats.
Hoboken was more Dem than Kearney in 2004 but now its reversed.
Hoboken and Nutley have absolutely nothing in common. I don't believe Nutley was ever particularly Democratic, either, though it has not moved towards the Democrats like its neighbors as it has remained heavily ethnic white (Italian, Polish, etc.) while the Hispanic population has exploded in neighboring towns.
Came here to say this. Actually, I can believe that Nutley was once Democratic, since it's heavily Italian and Catholic, and that's one demographic that has shifted Republican for sure since the JFK days.
And, as for its neighbors, Lyndhurst and North Arlington are still heavily white, though not quite to the extent of Nutley, in large part b/c Nutley is a bit more affluent.
If I had to guess, I'd say Hoboken trended R for similar reasons as, say, Greenwich CT.
