Green Brook Re-Elects Searfoss to Township Committee

Green Brook Republican Gerard Searfoss defeated his Democratic challenger Tuesday to earn another three-year term on the Township Committee.

Searfoss earned 64 percent of the vote to David Breen's 36 percent.

James Benscoter and Gerald Binder ran unopposed for two, three-year seats on Green Brook's Board of Education while no candidates ran for the one-year unexpired term.

Republican Mayor Stephen K. Pote ran unopposed in Watchung as did fellow GOP Robert L. Gibbs for a one-year unexpired term and Republicans William Nehl and Dianna Beck-Clemens for three-year terms.

The Watchung local school board and Watchung Hills Board of Education results were not yet available late Tuesday night.

Correction: An earlier version of this story incorrectly stated Gerard Searfoss was Green Brook's mayor.
