Today’s R&D provides articles on this week’s New Jersey’s special election for the U.S. Senate. Democratic candidate and Newark mayor Cory Booker defeated Republican candidate Steve Lonegan by a ten point margin, 55-45%. Despite the convincing win, political analysts noted that Booker underperformed and Lonegan clawed back from a forty point deficit earlier in the race, but could not find enough votes for victory in a traditionally “blue” state. Democrats gained a Senate seat from the win, since Booker will replace Republican Jeff Chiesa, who Governor Chris Christie appointed to the seat after the death of Senator Frank Lautenberg in June.

The Justice Department is currently suing several states, with North Carolina being the most recent (which is why most of the articles below cover North Carolina), over its voter ID law.
