Ridgewood NJ, according to David Wildstein of the New Jersey Globe , Bergen County Freeholder David Ganz will not seek re-election to a seventh term.The buzz is that Village of Ridgewood Mayor Ramon Hache has emerged as a leading candidate to run on the Bergen County Democratic organization line to replace Ganz, a former Fair Lawn mayor who was first elected to countywide office in 2002 has been battling health issues for several years.
Mayor Hache is reportedly the pick of Paul Juliano, who became the Bergen County Democratic chairman last summer. The filing deadline to run for freeholder at the Bergen County Democratic convention is Friday at 4 PM. Candidates must file letters of intent with signatures of at least five county committee members from six different municipalities. If he wins, Hache would become the first Dominican-American to serve on the Board of Freeholders.
Hache is up for re-election this year in Ridgewood and his candidacy for countywide office would create an open seat in the Ridgewood council.
we need change…not the status quo
I am positively SHOCKED that former Ridgewood Mayor Paul Aronsohn was not given the nod for Freeholder by Bergen Democrats. Just SHOCKED. Unbelievable. How could they do that to Paul? Heh, heh!
A man’s got to know his limitations…
Showed a lot of promise, but his ego could not be contained.
Showed some promise because he was a fresh face. Major disappointment. Would not carry his sign on my lawn again.
Who cares , let him go.
The lawn signs are lucifers sirens
We get screwed by all of them
Then who will become the new mayor.
And what’s the talk about having a new Council member running
X village employee.
