Primary Voting to Set November Candidates

Polls will be open for the parties faithful Tuesday, as Republicans and Democrats select the names who will be on November's ballot in the general election.

In the municipal race for two seats on the Township Committee currently held by Frank Salvato and Mal Plager, only Republican candidates George Lazo and Michael Marion will apear on the ballot. No Democrats filed for the township race.

Anthony Sardis announced a write-in bid for a Republican nomination to the committee, but his name will not be on the ballot.

Voters will see a local name further up on the ballot, however, as Warren resident Paul Swanicke filed for the Democratic nomination to challenge State Sen. Tom Kean Jr. in November.  

Voting in the primary is limited to voters who have declared a party affiliation to vote for their party's nominees. Voters registered as independents can vote if they declare for the party of nominees they wish to support.

Polls will be open from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m.—check Warren Patch for the results as soon as the totals are announced.
