Kyrillos Running Unopposed?

By Art Gallagher

The Democrats gave Senator Joe Kyrillos, who turned 51 yesterday, a nice birthday gift. 

The party’s nominee for the 13th district senate seat, former Hazlet Mayor Chris Cullen, did not file his nominating petitions according to Politickernj.

The Democrats will now have to spend money a primary where they have no opposition in order to ask voters to write in Cullen. 

Maybe Tea Party Democrat Mark Falzon will wage a write in campaign for the nomination.   Falzon filed to run against Congressman Frank Pallone in the primary last year only to have his petitions successfully challenged by the Democratic organization.

    That would be great if Falzone ran. He needs a drubbing to ground the big head of his.

    […] the 13th legislative district, the Democrats do not have a candidate for Senate on the ballot.  Former Hazlet Mayor Chris Cullen received the Democratic nod at the party convention in April but did not file his petitions.  […]
