Trump-backed candidates swept the election this past November.
All four of President Trump’s endorsements won!
Another patriot, Edward Durr, officially joined the red wave on Wednesday when his opponent, a longtime powerful Democrat, Steve Sweeney, conceded.
Edward Durr is from New Jersey and drives a truck for the furniture chain Raymour & Flanigan.

He says he decided to get involved in politics following President Trump’s 2020 election.
As a grandfather to six, Durr is fiercely pro-life and considers himself a constitutional conservative.
He had never held office before and only spent $153 on his campaign.
Durr was up against the Democrat machine in New Jersey, Senate President Steve Sweeney.
Sweeney reported to spend over $300,000 on his campaign and still lost to the red wave!
On Wednesday, after all the votes were counted, Sweeney finally conceded.

The powerful Democratic politician in New Jersey lost by around 2,000 votes.
Sweeney himself even blamed his loss on a “red wave.”
Fox News has more:
New Jersey state Senate President Steve Sweeney conceded Wednesday to Republican candidate and commercial truck driver Edward Durr, who spent only $153 on his primary campaign.
“The results of Tuesday’s election are in, all votes have been fairly counted, and I, of course, accept the results,” Sweeney said during a press conference at the statehouse.
“I want to congratulate Mr. Durr and wish him the best of luck,” added Sweeney, who has served as New Jersey state Senate president since 2010.
When asked “what happened” to upend the race in the state’s 3rd Legislative District, Sweeney replied, “It was a red wave.”
Sweeney’s concession comes six days after The Associated Press called the race for Durr.
Durr contributes the big win to the red wave, turning the attention away from himself.
Referring to the election, Durr says, “I didn’t beat him. We beat him. The State of New Jersey, the people of New Jersey, the people of New Jersey beat him. They listened to what I had to say and I listened to what they had to say.”
"I didn’t beat him. We beat him," Durr said. "The state of New Jersey, the people of New Jersey beat him. They listened to what I had to say and I listened to what they had to say, and it’s a repudiation of Governor Murphy https://t.co/k7LaVbiQJd

Edward Durr is an excellent addition to the patriot leadership sweeping the nation.
In a self-made campaign video, Durr won over New Jersey, calling out his Governor’s nursing home deaths during the Pandemic.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Meet Edward Durr, the Republican truck driver who could oust longtime Senate President Steve Sweeney – with spending just $153 on his campaign.

The people of New Jersey have spoken, and they clearly demand local patriot action.
Conservatives are celebrating this win nationwide!
Don’t you love it when a truck driver beats the system? Edward Durr, a truck driver from South Jersey, took down the longest-serving Senate president in NJ’s history. When you think the little guy can’t win, here’s a case to remind you that he can! https://t.co/pOcSgGqSPB

You would think that if things were so great as this gentleman pretends they are under Biden that there would have been no Red Wave on Tuesday and a truck driver who spent $153 wouldn't have unseated the president of the state senate of New Jersey! https://t.co/7vWIQmmKYL

Remember Trump was not a politician. He listened to what us common folks wanted. I think Ed Durr will do great.

Edward Durr even received a congratulatory phone call from President Trump.
NY Post has more:
“Well, you take care,” Trump could be heard telling Durr, as someone with the senator-elect exclaimed, “Oh my God!”
“Anything I can do, you let me know. OK? Let me know,” Trump, 75, told him in the call posted to the Gloucester County GOP’s Facebook page on Sunday.
“Thank you very much, sir,” Durr responded respectfully. “And you know you can call me at any time,” he told the 45th commander-in-chief.
Trump replied, “Well, I know that, and I know you say great things.”
The Gloucester County Republican Party Chairwoman said that Durr was “absolutely thrilled to get the call. He’s a big fan of the president.” President Trump.https://t.co/gvdWkzPFVw
