Receiving huge plaudits this week in Bergen County is Lynne Hurwitz, who ran the Democratic campaign for Bergen County Freeholder. Three incumbents thought to be in trouble were re-elected despite the indictments of Democratic County Chairman Joseph Ferriero and Democratic party lawyer Dennis Oury. With Ferriero out of the picture for now, Hurwitz took a leave from her post as Deputy Chief of Staff to County Executive Dennis McNerney to run the day to day campaign. While Democrats lost the County Clerk race, they held their 7-0 majority on the Board of Freeholders.
