Your Essential Election Day Guide

• Still need to learn more about the candidates? Two of three BOE elections are not contested this year—the number of open seats on the board equals the number of people running. The candidates running for the board of RFH and the Rumson School District will fill those open positions. The only contested race will be for Fair Haven School District, as four people are running for the three open seats that are each three-year positions.
