Andy Kim Wins in New Jersey to Become the First Korean American Senator
Briefly

Representative Andy Kim's electoral victory marks a significant moment in U.S. politics, as he will become the first Korean American senator in history.
Kim's campaign was shaped by his triumph over New Jersey's first lady, Tammy Murphy, which challenges the traditional power dynamics of the state's political machines.
The recent race was characterized by notable civility, highlighted when Mr. Bashaw condemned derogatory comments made about Mr. Kim's heritage and offered support during a debate.
Mr. Kim's swearing-in, following the resignation of former senator Menendez due to corruption, signifies a pivotal shift in New Jersey's political landscape.
