You would probably win it, regardless of what party you run under, but would perform slightly better as a Republican than as a Democrat.

Loses it by mid-single digits. Populist Republicanism doesn't play very well there.

Wins by mid-single digits, as his brand of moderate conservatism would play well there

Wins by about 7, in part due to a home state advantage.

Wins by somewhere in between Trump 16 to Romney 12 numbers (between +4 and +10), probably hitting closer to the lower number due to partisan shifts (so 50-45)

For reference, this is how Morris has voted in recent elections:

2020 PRES: 61.7-36.8% Biden (D+24.9)
2020 SEN: 58.7-40.6% Booker (D+18.1)
2018 SEN: 51.0-46.3% Menendez (D+4.7)
2017 GOV: 53.1-45.7% Murphy (D+7.4)
2016 PRES: 55.5-40.7% Clinton (D+14.8 )

I think all of us, myself included, were guessing Morris is similar to Morris County politically, that is, politically competitive or with a slight GOP tilt. However, contrary to this popular belief, it's clearly a very Democratic area (if one that's not a fan of corrupt politicians - look at how badly Menendez did compared to Murphy, Booker, Biden and Clinton).


Wins by 15-20 points (he seems to be Democratic-leaning on the whole).

Oh, was this thread about the town instead of the county all along? I think most posters (including myself) were under the assumption of it being the county.

I don't think it was the idea was that it's the county itself, just that everyone figured Morris' politics = Morris County's politics (though yeah, the end result is the same - people vastly overestimating how conservative/competitive Morris actually is). Of course, the relevation that Morris itself is a Biden+25 polity makes this whole affair much less interesting.
