Lautenberg gets smashed in his home county (Bergen), loses to the guy I'm guessing was the machine candidate (the one who won Hudson) and wins by winning alll the conservative counties?  Odd

LeFante and Maguire were former Congressmen too. And I think Lautenberg spent a ton of money to win this primary too
