County Executive - Primary election

[TheGerbil]

I have seen very little about this in the news, so I decided to look up some info myself. Dan Onorato's term is coming to an end, and he is running for re-election. In the primary, he faces Rick Swartz. But who is Rick Swartz? Turns out he's the executive director of the Bloomfield-Garfield Corporation.

I am not sure who I'll vote for, but I'm trying to get informed. I found some info that might interest some of you, so I'm linking it here...

It looks like Onorato's platform focus is on brownfield redevelopment and job creation. Swartz seems most interested in funding and expanding public transit, and better communication between government and citizens.
