| Description | The battle in LD37 is among the most bitter and personal, but also hotly cynical. The story seems to be playing like a drama fit for television. With Senator Loretta Weinberg retiring, her successor—almost certainly a Democrat given the history and political demographics of the district—will not come to power without enduring a scathing primary campaign. Assemblymembers Gordon Johnson and Valerie Vanieri Huttle have been locking horns and nothing, it seems, is off the table.
It would make a compelling movie, except the characters are real and the contest to serve the district is laying open some very dire wounds for Dr. Dierdre Paul. Paul had been a Democrat but became a Republican in 2013, disgusted with the Democratic machine in Bergen county. |
