Democrats Win Gov. Races in N.J., Va.
Quote:
Democrats swept both governors' races Tuesday, with Sen. Jon Corzine (news, bio, voting record) easily winning New Jersey and Lt. Gov. Tim Kaine taking Virginia despite a last-minute campaign push for his opponent from President Bush.
Kaine had 860,719 votes, or 51 percent, to Kilgore's 789,273 votes, or 46.8 percent, with 88 percent of precincts reporting.
In New Jersey, Democratic Sen. Jon Corzine trounced Doug Forrester, pulling in 54 percent of the vote to the Republican's 42.8 percent, with 55 percent of precincts counted. Corzine had 605,915 votes, and Forrester had 480,477.

obviously, Dean isn't hurting the Democrats and Bush doesn't seem to be helping the Republicans.
