Week in Review: Politics, Hot Weather Dominate Headlines

With the primaries on Tuesday, the headlines this week were dominated by election results, stories about a 23-year-old who is making waves in local politics, and reactions from candidates.

But that was not all that went on this week:

On Monday, we provided a review of "Jerseylicious," a television show that centers on a Towaco resident, we introduced you to an actress from Montville, discussed why primary elections are important, met Democratic township committee candidate Mike O'Brien, and met a local volunteer.

On Tuesday, we gossiped about "The Real Housewives of New Jersey," met up with township committee candidate and mayor Jim Sandham at the polls, heard what township committee candidate Deb Nielson had to say, heard Art Daughtry urge voters to get out to the polls, spoke with residents about the election, and saw the election results.

On Wednesday, we saw the interview process for assistant principal at the high school begin, reported that a robbery suspect was arrested, saw Republicans celebrate primary victories, saw a local politician say he will probably never run again and met a new girls soccer coach.

On Thursday, we saw what's going on this weekend,  got some tips for staying cool in the hot weather, caught up with a local track coach, and saw a very close freeholder race.

On Friday, we saw what the township's Open Space Advisory Committee has planned, got the results from the high school track Meet of Champions, saw a drawing of the Towaco Train Station, and met a biomedical engineer who volunteers as an EMT.

Check back with Patch on Monday to see what's going on this upcoming week.
