Elections 2016: What Does the Primary Day Ballot Look Like in Moorestown?

Moorestown, NJ -- The battle between Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders isn’t the only Democratic Primary battle set for Tuesday.

A pair of Democrats are engaged in a rare inter-county battle for the Democratic nomination for the Third Congressional District seat.

The Burlington County Democratic Party has endorsed Frederick LaVergne for the seat, while the Ocean County Democratic Party has endorsed former Asbury Park City Councilman Jim Keady. LaVergne ran for the seat as an independent candidate in 2014.

The winner of the primary will challenge U.S. Rep. Tom MacArthur (R-3) in November’s general election. MacArthur is running unopposed in the Republican Primary.

The Third District covers 36 Burlington County municipalities and 16 municipalities in Ocean County.

There are also three Democrats running for the party’s nomination for the open Board of Chosen Freeholders seat, as Reva Foster, Margaret Schwelkert and Michael Miller all pursue the nomination.

Republican Tiver Latham is running unopposed in the Republican Primary.

Sander Friedman and Jeffrey Epstein are pursuing the Democratic Party’s nomination for County Surrogate. Republican Mary Ann O'Brien is running unopposed in the Republican Primary.

Burlington County Sheriff Jean Stanfield will run for re-election, unopposed in the Republican Primary. James Kostoplis is running for the Democrats’ nomination, also without opposition.

Locally, the stage is essentially set for November’s council elections, as each party has three candidates running unopposed for three open council seats.

Mayor Phil Garwood, Deputy Mayor Victoria Napolitano and candidate Mike Locatell are running on the Republican ticket.

Councilwoman Lisa Petriello and candidates Kati Angelini and Amy Leis are running on the Democrats’ slate.

Tuesday is also the final day for prospective candidates to file third party petitions.

New Jersey’ primary elections are closed, meaning voters must be a member of a party to vote in that party’s primary.

There is also same-day registration, which enables an independent voter to register as a member of a particular party so they can vote in that primary. Voters can then revert back to their previous affiliation at a later time.
