“Tie goes to the runner… in baseball. In politics, you have a do over,” Insider NJ reports.
“That’s what happened in this western Bergen County town of almost 13,000 after two council candidates both got 2,516 votes last fall. They were Republican Kevin Slasinski, an incumbent, and Independent Matthew Dumpert.”
“The special ‘do over’ election was Tuesday and the results were shocking – especially for local Republicans.”
“Dumpert beat GOP incumbent Slasinski by an overwhelming margin – more than a thousand votes.”
