A Neighbor, A Friend, and a Leader with Heart — Jill Gomez

I’ve known Jill Gomez for close to twenty years, and I’m proud to see her stepping forward to serve our town on the Hillsborough Township Committee.

During those years, I’ve seen her act with honesty, empathy, and purpose — not for attention or gain, but because it’s simply who she is.

Jill is a lifelong New Jersey resident and a proud Hillsborough neighbor. She’s raised her family here, volunteered in local programs, and built her career around helping people. She’s spent her life listening to others, finding solutions, and standing up for fairness — qualities our town government could always use more of.

She believes in practical leadership — lowering costs for everyday families, protecting our open spaces, and ensuring that Hillsborough grows responsibly. But what sets her apart isn’t just her policy goals; it’s her character.
Jill believes that politics should be about morals, about doing what’s right even when nobody’s watching.

If you haven’t heard of Jill yet, that’s OK. But I’m sure you’ll be hearing her name soon — because when Jill gets involved, things move forward. She’s not one for grandstanding; she just rolls up her sleeves and gets it done.

Hillsborough deserves leaders who put people before politics, heart before headlines, and compassion before convenience.

Jill Gomez is one of those leaders.

If you believe that good decisions start with good intentions — that when we act from the heart, everything else falls into place — then Jill Gomez deserves your attention and your vote.
