Republican leads in Millburn race by 1 vote [View all]

Just one vote separates a Republican challenger and a Democratic incumbent in Millburn, where the GOP has taken control of the township committee in a municipality that Democrat Mikie Sherrill carried with 62% last week.

Kris Heinrichs leads Deputy Mayor Michael Cohen, 3,720 to 3,719, with about 218 votes still uncounted and seven outstanding cure letters.

The top vote-getter, Republican Jamie Serruto, a 24-year-old former school board member, leads the pack with 3,849 votes and has secured one of the two seats; with two Republicans elected in 2023, the GOP will take control for the first time in nearly a decade.

Democrat Annette Romano, the sitting mayor, lost her bid for re-election, finishing fourth with 3,685 votes.
