Stafford Township Republicans Locked In Primary Battle

STAFFORD TOWNSHIP, NJ - Although no Democrats have filed to run for the mayoral and Township Council seats this year, two slates of Republican candidates are fighting for their party's nomination in the June primary election.

Longtime incumbent Republican Mayor John R. Spodofora, 22 Division Street, is running for another term. He is being challenged by Gregory E. Myhre, 933 Bonita Lane.

Spodofora is running on the Regular Republican ticket with a full slate of candidates for the six available Township Council seats.

His running mates include:
Gordon Carlson, 216 Timberlake Drive

Stephen Fessler, 184 Oxycocus Road

Paul Marchal, 127 Jennifer Lane

Raymond Fix, 43 Katydid Drive, West Creek

Sharon McKenna, 368 Admiral Lane

David Taylor, 467 Coral Lane

Myhre's running mates include:

Thomas Steadman, 20 Lally Lane, West Creek

Anthony R. Guariglia, 129 Stowaway Road

Michael T. Pfancook, 104 Mariner Lane

George S. Williams, 6 Mermaid Drive

Robert E. HenkenSiefken, 1771 Breakers Drive

Paul S. Krier, 27 Stormy Road

Myhre is running on the Stafford Conservatives ticket, which is listed as "Ocean County MAGA Republicans," on the Ocean County Clerk's website.

The slate is on a mission to fight Gov. Murphy's "far-left policies," - and are committed to the principles of limited government, trimming wasteful spending, and fighting for the taxpayer, Myhre said.

“Our team brings a broad range of experience to tackle new issues that Stafford faces with the onslaught of regulations raining down from the Murphy administration," he said.

Poll hours are from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m.
