Singer will back Richter

State Sen. Bob Singer said he’ll back David Richter in the third district’s primary.

“I have two voting districts in Point Pleasant Borough,” he said. “And I certainly will support the person supported by the county, which is David Richter.”

Richter won the Ocean County Republican line on Wednesday, defeating former Burlington County Freeholder Kate Gibbs 68-60.

Gibbs has the line in her home county.

Both are running for the chance to take on Rep. Andy Kim (D-Marlton).
