Get To Know Your Candidates in the Long Branch-Eatontown Area

By Christopher Sheldon

Election Day is a little more than a week away, so we'll be focusing on getting you the local election information you need for the Long Branch-Eatontown area.

There is a contested council race in Eatontown this year with four people trying to get two spots on dais. We've reached out to the four candidates and asked them some questions about local issues. We should have their responses up by Thursday at the latest.

There is an uncontested race for mayor and two council seats in Tinton Falls, and we'll help you get to know those candidates as well.

The race for three spots on the Long Branch Board of Education is also highly contested with seven candidates in the running this year.

Speaking of which, there is also a Long Branch Board of Education meeting this week on Wednesday, Oct. 30, at 7 p.m., so we'll be there to cover that as well.
