Way to go, Jim! It was very thrilling to watch the coverage of your victory from out here in California. My sons had fun finding your district on the map and adding your seat to their tally of the Democratic gains. All the best to you and your family on this historic night. Kelley Taber

I spent the day bopping around from polling station to polling station in New Milford, hanging with the local Chris Murphy poll sitters and the “Vote No on 1” people.
I was happy to come back home after sitting through the results coming in at Town Hall to find out that CT became a slaughterhouse for the GOP.
Congratulations Jim.
Now… Get to work!
