TRENTON – Public schools in New Jersey are being directly sent nearly $2.5 billion from the latest federal coronavirus recovery law – but say that’s still not enough to handle the ventilation improvements they need to install.

“The county committee will call a convention and we will name a replacement to fill that vacancy through the next election in November and I fully expect, assume, and presume that our choice will be Vince Polistina,” said Atlantic County GOP Chairman Keith Davis.
In June, former Assemblyman Polistina prevailed over movement conservative Seth Grossman in the Republican Primary to succeed Brown, who had already announced his decision not to pursue reelection this year.
Of a pending convention to fill the vacancy caused by Brown’s departure, Davis added, “Obviously Chris has to resign his senate position. We would need that letter of resignation. Assuming that happens quickly in the next week or so we could have a meeting to [install Brown’s replacement].”
