Election 2020: 6 Seeking Seats On Lacey School Board

LACEY, NJ — Six people have filed petitions seeking election to the Lacey Township Board of Education in November.

The Ocean County Clerk's office released the names of the six candidates, whose petitions were filed by 4 p.m. Monday, the deadline to be on the Nov. 3 ballot.

The candidates are running for two available three-year terms on the board. Here are the candidates who filed to run:

• Nicholas Mirandi
• Frank T. Palino
• Jamie Fraser
• Ashley Larsen
• Kimberly Klaus
• Salvatore Armato

Mirandi and Palino are running together. Palino is a current board member. Mirandi served as board vice president last year but didn't run for reelection in 2019.

Armato and Larsen both ran for school board last year. Armato ran for school board last year under a campaign focused on open communication with constituents and getting the board to "refocus on education," he said before the election. Larsen's campaign put students' mental health in the spotlight. Read more: Meet The 2019 Lacey School Board Candidates
