Republicans Take Freeholder Seats

By the end of Tuesday night, it appeared the Republicans would run the table in Morris County freeholder races.

David Scapicchio (101,453) of Mount Olive, John Krickus (102,424) of Washington Township, and John Cesaro (103,233) of Parsippany were expected to win three three-year terms on the Morris County Board of Chosen Freeholders, defeating Democrat challengers Toshiba Foster (64,266) of Morristown, Wasim Khan (61,848) and Joy Singh (64,733) of Parsippany and Independent candidate Maureen Castriotta (3,067) of Roxbury.

Fellow Republican William "Hank" Lyon (100,812), meanwhile, defeated Democrat challenger Truscha Quatrone (63,766) for an unexpired two-year term with the freeholders. Lyon has been a freeholder since March but needed to win now in order to finish the term.
