Most Morris County freeholders back Pennacchio

United States Senate candidate Joe Pennacchio announced today that most of the freeholder board in his home county supports his candidacy.

Pennacchio, a state Senator and former Morris County freeholder, has the support of six out of the seven members of the county’s all-Republican freeholder board: Margaret Nordstrom, Gene Feyl, William Chegwidden, John Murphy, James Murray and Jack Schrier.

Never take a race for granted

Jim Murray spent 35 years as an engineer employed by Morris CountyJim Murray spent 35 years as an engineer employed by Morris CountyJames Murray, a 68-year-old retired engineer from Chester Township, chewed into the usually sedate scenery of Morris County politics Tuesday when he upset Freeholder John Inglesino, stunning the political establishment and two other Freeholders.

Murray says his “message” propelled him to victory -- but he spent less than $5,000 on his campaign, and there was no obvious reason why Inglesino would find himself in trouble with Republican primary voters that have re-elected him twice by considerable pluralities.

Some Republicans have even wondered if there was a hiccup in the electronic voting machines – something the county’s top election official denies.

Could Chegwidden's decision pave the way for an Inglesino comeback?

Bill Chegwidden says he agrees with the new law that bans dual officeholding, so he will give up one of his two posts -- Morris County Freeholder and Mayor of Wharton -- before the end of the year, even though the law doesn't require him to do so. Chegwidden, a high school social studies teacher who was elected Freeholder in 2006, has not decided which job he will give up. But another dual officeholder, Freeholder Jack Schrier, the Mayor of Mendham, says he will use the grandfather clause and remain in both posts.
