UPSET IN ASSEMBLY
Monmouth County Democrats Joann Downey and Eric Houghtaling celebrate a victory in the 11th District race, according to
unofficial results.
Democrats Eric Houghtaling and Joann Downey appear to have pulled off an upset in the District 11 Assembly race where 165 votes separated them from the Republican incumbents.
But officials in the Monmouth County Clerk's Office
could not explain a last-minute drop in the online vote
tallies that eliminated more than 1,000 votes for some
races and potentially changed the outcome for the referendum on the Belmar pavilion.
Officials weren't aware of the discrepancy until the
Asbury Park Press questioned the altered vote tallies.
Bertha C. Sumick, special deputy county clerk, said she
would have IT staff address the issue first thing in the

Houghtaling was the top vote-getter in the District 11
race with 13,727 votes, followed by 13,452 votes for
LITTLE EGG HARBOR Perhaps the biggest political upset in Ocean County on Tuesday was in the election for Township Committee, where Democrats defeated the Republican incumbents, including Mayor
Arthur Midgley.
Democratic candidates David Schlick and Lisa Stevens defeated Midgley and Committeeman Edward
Nuttall.
Schlick and Stevens won with 2,107 and 2,074 votes,
respectively, to Midgley and Nuttall, with 1,614 and
1,551 votes, respectively, according to unofficial results
from the Ocean County Clerks Office.
The race in Little Egg Harbor was not a closely
watched contest and even Stevens had complained that
she and Schlick could not get money or organizational
support from the Ocean County Democratic Party,
