Wall loses bid for Holmdel GOP Chairman
By Wally EdgeIn some contests for Republican Municipal Chairmanships in Monmouth County, Holmdel Committeeman Terence Wall, who is supporting County Chairman candidates James Giannell, lost his bid for GOP Municipal Chairman. Steven Grossman, also allied with Giannell, was unseated as the Hazlet Republican Municipal Chairman.
The 2006 Monmouth GOP county ticket is split on a choice of County Chairman: Freeholder Anna Little has endorsed Giannell, the Red Bank Republican Municipal Chairman, while Freeholder candidate Andrew Lucas and Surrogate candidate Rosemarie Peters are backing Adam Puharic, a former Undersheriff.

I can't fathom how people could vote for someone who has <b>neve
I can't fathom how people could vote for someone who has never won an election in June or November. Jim Giannell has laid goose eggs in his hometown of Red Bank. In the big picture, he tries to take credit for Jen Beck's victory in Red Bank, but he openly worked against her after she realized that she couldn't win with Giannell as her campaign manager.
Lingering of Jim's head is charges filed against him by two women. An Asbury Park Press article from last year backs that up.
Jim is also coached by his fiancee Gerri Popkin, who is the former Vice Chair of the party, and is also the Director of Purchasing for Monmouth County. Gerri just happened to make over $70,000 in overtime a year ago.
Jim Giannell spells the end of 30 yrs of GOP dominance in Monmouth County.
