Mayor of Parsippany
Michael Spector

Here's a local article about Michael's campaign.

Union County

Toy-Ling Washington, Council, Hillside

Toy-Ling made a very good showing on May 10. The official results in the Star-Ledger gave her 1200 votes, with the incumbents getting 1700-1800 apiece. In this officially non-partisan race, Washington ran a campaign with an independent mayoral candidate who received around 47% of the vote against the incumbent. We hear the results may be contested - more later. [Editor's note: This is being contested in Superior Court in Elizabeth and is getting coverage in the Star-Ledger. For instance, see this article.]
