NA LOCALS ENDORSE JOSH FOR NJ GOVERNOR IN 2025!
Dems view Gottheimer as best possible choice to succeed Murphy.
NORTH ARLINGTON – With only two states electing governors in 2025, local Democrats agree that US Representative Josh Gottheimer as a favorite son from Bergen County could be the best possible choice to lead the party to victory.
Democratic Municipal Chairman Nick Antonicello and John Balwierczak attended the Congressman’s announcement today as a lion’s share of local party elected officials are backing the moderate Democrat in lieu of the loss last week of Kamala Harris for president to President-elect, Donald Trump.
“Having a strong lead-in for the rest of the ticket matters. Congressman Gottheimer clearly is the common sense choice for North Arlington and New Jersey,” offered the local party leader.
Pictured at the event is both Antonicello as well as Balwierczak who was unsuccessful in his bid for a council seat on November 5th.
