Taking a step back from the numbers, Solomon and Jabbour described how they both felt.

While the Jersey City Marion area is relieved it’s still tabled for tonight, there’s one regular council meeting left before the new year and new local administration.

“Voting is one of the most sacred rights we have as citizens. To not do so is to allow others to make decisions that could adversely impact our daily lives.”

For Tuesday, Dec. 2’s runoff election, Hudson County voter participation is arguably even more critical this time around.

“So instead of just reporting on what I was seeing with dismay, I decided to flip the script and be the force in local government that I wished to write about.”

If you reside in Jersey City, you know it’s time to choose a new mayor and city council members.

“I’m here to continue to be a bridge in this great city. Together, we can build a Jersey City that works for all of us.”

“I wanna fix the issues that we’re having here within Jersey City and become one big community.”

“Our democracy is being attacked. It’s so important for us to honor our stories and provide fact-based information to our communities,” Miles said in a written response.

“Please join us this Thursday evening for this critical meeting and feel free to pass this message along to all your neighbors and friends.”
