Lots of folks are wondering if November 3rd was a fluke or not. We don’t know, no one here can answer that because we aren’t active in that organization. We prefer to sit on the sidelines and watch the show.

Fluke or not the congratulations go to Bill Fey who won leadership of the organization after a very bitter battle with the former party chair Loran Oglesby.

The organization gained nine seats at the municipal level, won an Assembly seat (and it was won in Gloucester County because Camden County came up way short on their end) and Chris Christie beat Corzine in the blue county.

At least some of the credit has to go to the new leadership at the county level. The question now becomes can they keep it up? Of course they have Steve Sweeney to contend with but as this blog mentioned earlier Sweeney is going to be busy with the Senate presidency so the GOP may be able to sneak him again.

With big races in Washington and Monroe townships next year. It’s possible the Gloucester County GOP might now be a contender.
