State Senator among attendees at campaign fundraiser in Bernardsville.
Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's appearance on Wednesday at a campaign fundraiser at a home in Bernardville was a "wonderful" occasion, where Romney relayed a "compelling" case why he should be president, according to N.J. Sen. Tom Kean Jr., (R-District 21), one of the attendees of the event. Romney also "warmly endorsed" N.J. Sen. Joseph Kyrillos, (R-District 13) who is seeking to unseat Democrat Robert Menendez in the U.S. Senate, with a focus by both on how lower taxes would improve the economy and jobs creation, Kean said on Thursday. "Both were very energizing," Kean said. Romney and Kyrillos have known each other since long before Kyrillos ran the former Massachusetts governor's presidential campaign in New Jersey four…

The probable Republican nominee for U.S. president attends a political fundraiser on Bernardsville mountain.
The actual event was a political fundraiser for state Sen. Joe Kyrillos, a Republican who wants to replace Democrat Bob Menendez in the U.S. Senate, but the reason for all the security, traffic and reporters outside a private home in Bernardsville on Wednesday afternoon was the awaited arrival of Mitt Romney. Romney, the likely Republican nominee for this year's presidential race, arrived about an hour after the scheduled start of the $5,000-a-plate campaign event at the house of attorney Edward Deutsch. The Somerset County sheriff's department, with its canine unit, a few cars and officers from the Bernardsville police department and Secret Service had already secured the entrance to the home on Dryden Road prior to 3:30 p.m., when the …

Presidential hopeful to attend fundraiser for U.S. senator candidate Wednesday in Bernardsville.
Just one month after U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez lured the country's vice president to a local fundraiser at a private home, his challenger is bringing a big name of his own to the area. A $5,000-a-plate fundraiser for State Sen. Joseph Kyrillos (R-Monmouth) will be held Wednesday at the home of a Bernardsville attorney that will feature Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney. "We are grateful for Governor Romney’s support for Senator Kyrillos' campaign against Bob Menendez," Kyrillos' campaign manager, Chapin Fay, wrote Tuesday in an email to Patch. Menendez held his own high-profile event last month in a Morris Township home where tickets sold for $1,000 each and was attended by Vice President Joe Biden. About 140 people attended the …
Bernardsville attorney prepares for 50 to 100 people at Wednesday fundraiser for N.J. Sen. Joseph Kyrillos, with chance to meet presidential hopeful.
Preparations for Wednesday's private campaign fundraiser that will bring together Republican candidates Sen. Joseph Kyrillos, who's seeking election to the U.S. Senate, and his friend Mitt Romney—who's got his eye on the White House— have been underway at the Deutsch household in Bernardsville. "It's not going to be a huge crowd," said Edward Deutsch, a managing partner of the law firm of McElroy, Deutsch, Mulvaney & Carpenter. Deutsch and his wife will be hosting the campaign event at his home. Already, he said, Romney's security staff were at his house on Tuesday. Deutsch said people are still responding to invitations to the $5,000-a-plate fundraiser. He said he's expecting about 50 to 100 guests to attend Wednesday's event, which will …

Residents and officials also say they can't afford to attend the $5K-a-plate fundraiser.
U.S. Presidential hopeful Mitt Romney may be coming to the area on Wednesday, but life in downtown Bernardsville is expected to go on pretty much as usual, even for those who might have liked a chance to meet the candidate most likely to be nominated as the Republican party's choice for president. Romney is invited, and expected to attend, a $5,000-a-plate political fundraiser hosted at the home of Bernardsville attorney Ed Deutsch, a partner in the law firm of McElroy, Deutsch, Mulvaney & Carptenter. The fundraiser actually is billed as supporting the campaign of N.J. Sen. Joseph Kyrillos (R-Monmouth), who hopes to unseat U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez. "I don't have that kind of money," said Somerset County Freeholder Peter Palmer, also a …

An effort to have President Barack Obama's name removed from New Jersey's primary ballot was dealt a setback by recent ruling and lieutenant governor's decision.
An administrative law judge's ruling that President Barack Obama is eligible to appear on New Jersey's upcoming primary ballot was upheld by Lt. Governor Kim Guadagno, a spokesman for New Jersey's Division of Elections said early Friday afternoon. In what attorney Mario Apuzzo is calling a "sham of justice," a state judge ruled against objectors seeking to remove President Barack Obama's name from New Jersey's upcoming primary ballot. According to Apuzzo, the attorney representing New Jersey residents Nick Purpura and Ted Moran, Deputy Director and Administrative Law Judge Jeff Masin ruled against the ballot challenge following a more than three-hour hearing earlier this week. His decision, delivered to Apuzzo via email, was not based on …

Will seek GOP nominations for additional terms on the Township Committee.
With the filing deadline passing at 4 p.m. Monday, only two residents filed for the Township Committee seat primary election in June: Gary DiNardo and Vic Sordillo. They will appear on the June primary ballot seeking the Republican party nomination for the two Township Committee seats they currently hold. No petitions were filed for candidates seeking Democratic nominations. Both are familiar faces to Warren voters, with DiNardo having served as mayor last year and Sordillo in 2010.
