Formal Statement on Securing the
Democratic Nomination for Passaic County Sheriff
June 5th, 2024
I am incredibly honored to announce that I have officially secured the Democratic nomination for Passaic County Sheriff. This victory is not only my own but also belongs to every supporter, volunteer, and voter who believed in my campaign. A special thank you to Democratic Chairman John Currie, whose faith in my candidacy has been unwavering.
The voters of Passaic County spoke loudly and clearly, rejecting a smear campaign launched against me by my notorious and controversial opponent. Despite his best attempts to sow division and paint a false narrative about my candidacy, voters clearly saw through the lies and rejected those efforts. They chose to move Passaic County forward.
Heartfelt and sincere congratulations are in order for my running mates. Congressional Leaders Mikie Sherrill and Bill Pascrell won their races, while Commissioners Sandi Lazzara and John Bartlett also successfully secured their re-election nominations. Newcomer Commissioner Rodney DeVore also won his first nomination. Their hard work and determination over the past several months have paid off, and I am excited to work alongside each of them.
As we celebrate this election win, we must also recognize that the race is not over. In just 4 short months, the general election will be upon us. The stakes remain high, and there are challenges ahead. But building on the momentum of this race is a must, and continuing to work together will ensure that we are victorious in November.
Thank you to all my supporters, my family and friends -- and of course, all of the voters. Together, let us continue to Move Passaic County Forward. I am incredibly excited and look forward to serving as the next Sheriff of Passaic County.
