Kearny Dems sweep to victory last week

The Blue Tsunami that hit America last week was just as strong in Kearny — the Democrats had a very strong showing. Seen in this image are five of the victors. They are, from left, First Ward Councilman George Zapata, who won a second term and easily fended off a last-minute write-in campaign against his candidacy; incumbent Board of Education trustees Zibbie Viscuso, Samantha Paris and Laura Cifelli-Pettigrew; and Third Ward Councilwoman-elect Sarah Bonilla, who will take office in January. Bonilla easily fended off a Republican challenger.

Blue Devils Flip the Script and Finish on Top of Raiders in Sectional Semifinals

Going into the fifth round of penalty kicks, Westfield was leading 4-3. When the Scotch Plains-Fanwood player shot the ball, it was do-or-die; if he made it, the pressure would shift back to Westfield, but if he missed it, his season would end. Westfield junior goalkeeper Dominik Kotowicz waited for the shot and read it perfectly, falling on top of the ball. No goal. Westfield survives penalty kicks and secures a semifinal victory to advance to the state finals.

The vote, or lack of one, means the pool — which drew roughly 2,800 users this year according to city officials — remains free to enter for now, even as the municipality faces warnings about rising costs elsewhere in its budget.
