Princeton Community Democratic Organization Doesn't Endorse Any Candidates

Princeton, NJ -- None of the four candidates in this year’s Princeton Council Democratic Primary earned the endorsement of the Princeton Community Democratic Organization during a meeting at the Jewish Center of Princeton Sunday night, Planet Princeton reports.

Incumbent councilwoman Jenny Crumiller and challengers Tim Quinn and Anne Neumann received the support of the organization, but not the full endorsement. Candidate Letitia Fraga didn’t reach the 40 percent threshold to earn the organization’s support, according to the report.

Two seats are up for grabs in this year’s elections. The primary is set for June 7.

Only 166 of the organization’s members showed up for the meeting, according to the report.

The organization has about 400 members, according to the Princeton Packet.

It was unclear why there was a lack of turnout, but the weather and lack of enthusiasm may have played a role, according to the reports.

Mercer County Democratic Chairwoman and State Assemblywoman Liz Muoio makes the final determination about ballot placement in the primary, and takes into account the opinions of both the Princeton Community Democratic Organization and the Princeton Democratic Municipal Committee, according to the Princeton Packet.

The Princeton Democratic Municipal Committee will discuss its endorsement Tuesday night.
