| Description | The Republican primary for State Assembly in the 26th legislative district was upended over the weekend after five-term incumbent BettyLou DeCroce (R-Parsippany) lost the support of her home county Republican organization.
Christian Barranco, a member of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 102, defeated DeCroce by nine votes, 87-78, at the first-ever Morris County Republican convention on Friday night. Jay Webber, who is seeking his eighth term in the legislature, was the top vote-getter with 117 votes.
On Saturday morning, Passaic County Republicans denied their organization line to Webber, endorsing DeCroce and Barranco. The West Milford GOP, the only Passaic municipality in the 26th, gave 20 votes to DeCroce, 14 to Barranco and 6 to Webber. |
