Scutari supports Jones

Union County Democratic Chairman Nicholas Scutari today endorsed LeRoy Jones for New Jersey Democratic State Chairman.

“Chairman Currie has worked hard on behalf of Democrats throughout New Jersey, and I thank him for his service. As we begin laying the groundwork for Democratic success in 2020 and beyond, I believe party cohesion and effective leadership are absolutely necessary,” Scutari said. “The unparalleled success and unifying leadership Chairman LeRoy Jones has displayed in Essex County should serve as a model for what we need at the New Jersey Democratic State Committee in the years ahead.”

Jones, the Essex County Democratic chairman, is mulling a challenge to incumbent John Currie.
