Local Democratic Chairs Declare Support for Phil Murphy for Governor and Jerry Green for re-election as Chairman of the Union County Democratic Committee

Democratic municipal chairs throughout Union County have declared their intention to support both Phil Murphy for Governor and the re-election of Assemblyman Jerry Green for Chairman of the Union County Democratic Committee.

When I was first elected county chairman, I made it a point to work closely with our municipal chairs to ensure Democrats at every level of the ballot had the resources they needed to compete, declared Green. Im honored by their continued support for myself and Phil.

What has made Jerry a successful chairman is his belief that every Democrat, regardless of where they live in Union County, has a voice and brings real value to our party, said Phil Murphy. I am as humbled to have the support of Union Countys grassroots Democratic leaders as I am proud to support Jerry Green for re-election as chairman. Union Countys Democrats will keep moving forward under his continued leadership.

Since being elected county chairman in June 2013, Chairman Green and Union County Democrats have successfully defended all nine Freeholder seats, all three county-wide constitutional offices, all incumbent Democratic legislators, and made significant local gains in communities such as Kenilworth, Summit, Cranford, Springfield, Garwood, and Roselle Park. Weve come a long way, but theres still more to get done, stated Green. With this support, Im eager to seek re-election in June and keep moving our Party forward.

In endorsing Murphy, the local leaders cited his innovative ideas for fixing the states economy and growing the middle class by investing in communities, education, and critical infrastructure.

The Democratic Primary for Governor is on Tuesday, June 6th. The election for Democratic countychairman will be on Tuesday, June 13th.

Union County Democrats Endorse Joe Cryan for State Senate

Union County Democratic Chairman Jerry Green, Elizabeth Mayor J. Christian Bollwage, the 20th Legislative District Assembly members Annette Quijano and Jamel Holley, and the Democratic Municipal Chairmen from the 20th Legislative district today issued their joint support of Union County Sheriff Joseph Cryan for State Senator in the 20th District. Their support follows press reports that long-time State Senator Raymond Lesniak has filed the paperwork required to run for governor.

Union County Democratic Committee Chairman Jerry Green issued the following statement:

Ray Lesniak has been a strong, effective legislator since the day he first assumed office in 1978. His work as the New Jersey Chair for the Clinton/Gore and Gore/Lieberman campaigns and his tireless efforts to pass the Marriage Equality Act and for the abolition of the death penalty in New Jersey are just a sample of what he has accomplished in his almost forty years in the legislature. He will be missed in the Senate.

It is critically important that the 20th Legislative District have a representative in the State Senate with a similar dedication to public service and strong public policy. I believe Sheriff Cryan would be the ideal candidate. He has a long history fighting for people in the 20th District and, as a former colleague of mine in the General Assembly, I have seen first-hand the dedication, expertise and tenacity Joe brings down to Trenton each day on behalf of those he represents. I am supporting Sheriff Cryans candidacy as the Democratic nominee, because I believe he is the right choice to join Senator Nick Scutari in representing Union County in the State Senate.
