The Middlesex County Republican Convention was a success.  Candidates from districts that include towns from Middlesex County were their to meet people and state their case for running.  There was very little voting at this convention.  At the end of the evening three candidates ran for two spots for County Freeholder.  The two men who will run on the Republican ticket for Freeholder are:  John O'Sullivan & Avi Duvdevani

Candidates for the 17th District:  State Senate -
Jordan Rickards
State Assembly-
 Carlo DiLalla and Bob Mettler
