Democrats make history...one more time!

HuffPost on Instagram: “History was just made. Andy Kim, a national security adviser to President Obama who returned home to suburban New Jersey to challenge…”

"History was just made. Andy Kim, a national security adviser to President Obama who returned home to suburban New Jersey to challenge the biggest Trump supporter in the Garden State’s congressional delegation, has won a tight race against GOP Rep. Tom MacArthur and made history in the process. The Associated Press called the race more than a week after the polls closed. Kim will become the first Korean-American Democrat to serve in Congress, which hasn’t had a lawmaker of Korean descent since 1999. (Republican Young Kim is locked in a too-close-to-call race in California; if she prevails, she would be the first Korean-American woman in Congress.) Andy Kim’s win adds to the House majority Democrats won in last Tuesday’s election by gaining more than 30 seats and is the latest of a number of late-deciding races that went the party’s way."
 
New Jersey??

Not surprising that a Dem won.

Hope she proves to be good in Congress.
