Fort Lee Voters To Elect Two Council, Three School Board Members
A total of nine candidates are running in local elections—four for two seats on the Council, and five for four seats—three, three-year terms and one unexpired one-year term—on the BOE. Polls are open from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday.
Fort Lee voters will go to the polls Tuesday, amid the continuing power outages, gas rationing and general sense of uncertainty Sandy left in its wake, with two Borough Council seats and three contested Board of Education seats at stake. Unlike in many Bergen County towns, where polling locations had to be moved or changed, all Fort Lee voters will vote where they normally do, although at least some of those polling places may have to be powered by generators. Republican challengers Thomas A. Bennett and Peter B. “Mack” Campbell are attempting to unseat Democratic incumbent Councilmen Harvey Sohmer and Joseph L. Cervieri, the current Council president.
