LEHRER WON'T RUN; NEVERTHELESS FIELD COULD BE SHAPING UP

According to the APP, former Judge Al "Hollywood" Lehrer will not be running as a candidate for freeholder this year.

What names are out there for the Dems? According to the rumor mill I have heard there is Amy Mallet, Mike Beeson, Glenn Mason and Lenny Inzerillo. There is also rumored to be possible Howell and Belmar candidates, respectively (no names yet).

It is a loss for Democrats that Judge Lehrer will not be running. He is a great candidate, but more importantly he would have made a great freeholder. Still, that doesn't mean there are not several good candidates out there for the Democratic Party.
