A former Navy pilot, first elected to Congress in 2018, will be New Jersey's next governor.

Democratic Rep. Mikie Sherrill defeated former Republican Assemblyman Jack Ciattarelli, according to a race call by The Associated Press, capping a closely-watched gubernatorial election that some polls predicted would be a coin flip.

Sherrill is one of the least exciting, least motivating and least appealing candidates I've seen, but at least she isn't Republican.

Also she wants to expand outreach and services for mental health patients in NJ so she's got that going for her.
