The Record: Bergen freeholders
THE RECORD
IT’S NEVER best for one political party to hold every local government office. As well-intentioned as officials may be, complete control by the same party often leads to patronage hires and decisions based on what’s good for party interests, not necessarily the public at large. While one-party dominance of a Freeholder Board may make sense depending on the freeholders — it does this year in Passaic County — it does not in Bergen County.
That’s why we support the three Republicans seeking seats on the Bergen County Freeholder Board, incumbent Maura DeNicola, former Freeholder John J. Driscoll and Robert DiDio.
