Filing deadline 10 days away (no foolin’)
Anyone who wants to get their name on the June primary election ballot for Township Committee has until Monday, April 1, to file a petition with the township clerk.
Judd Mandel, who ran as an independent for Township Committee last year, said Friday that he won’t seek office this year.
His landscaping business was, thankfully, busy, he said.
Democratic Party Chairman Michael Goldberg replied in an email that his party was “finalizing our choice and will have our petition filed by April 1.”
Township Committeeman Frank DelCore said when he was chosen as mayor at the beginning of the year that he would seek re-election as a Republican.
Anyone who wishes to file as an independent, has until the end of primary election day, June 4, to file. That’s what Mr. Mandel did last year.
There is just the one three-year Township Committee seat up for grabs this year. The ballot will be topped by the race for governor with races for state Senate and Assembly, sheriff and one freeholder also to be decided.
