Roselle Park’s primary elections held yesterday resulted in the easy victory for the unopposed candidates of each party. The list below shows the numbers for each candidate. The side-by-side tallies are shown for reference purposes only and are not meant to denote winner between the two (2) candidates since registered Democrats could only vote for Democratic candidates and the same applied for Republicans; there was no vote of one candidate against the other for the same council seat.
