County Clerk Joanne Rajoppi has posted the official results of the Nov. 2 general election.
In the First Ward, incumbent Democrat Councilman William Reid received 1,803 votes to Republican Sean Alfred's 126, with one vote for a personal choice.
For the Second & Third Wards at-large seat, New Democrat Rebecca Williams received 4,590 votes, Republican James Pivnichny received 842 votes and six people made personal choices. In the two wards, there were 12,440 eligible voters and about 37 percent went to the polls. Pivnichny, also known as "Piv," drew more votes than there are registered Republicans in the two wards.
That's it on the hyperlocal level for this year, folks. Stay tuned as two council seats - the Second Ward and the First & Fourth Ward at-large - will be up next year, along with the entire Democratic City Committee - 68 seats - and the Democratic Party Chairman's Assembly seat.

From a Civic's Class standpoint, are not all the assembly & senate seats up for election in NJ next November? Do you or others know of a link that will show who, what, when primaries are etc.?
ReplyDeleteAll Senate seats are up for two-year terms in 2011. All Assembly seats are up for two-year terms in 2011. Howver, redistricting will be taking place due to the 2010 Census. Candidates file in April for the June primary. There may be changes in districts that will have to be taken into account.
ReplyDeleteWill somebody please explain how long it takes to do redistricting and what election cycle will be affected? Is it 2011 or 2012?
