Polling results are delivered to the township Municipal Building June 4.

The two Democratic-party endorsed local candidates survived primary challenges June 4, but a township man challenging the Republican Party’s pick for Freeholder was not successful.

Darrin Russo out-polled his challenger, retired Bridgewater Police Sergeant Arthur Akins.
