Politics & Government::Rich Boggiano for Jersey City Council Ward C

Hello everyone, I'm happy to announce some endorsements I received this week.



The first comes from leaders of Jersey City's Egyptian, Indian, and Pakistani communities. I've gotten to know each of these leaders over the last 10 years through West Point's Winning the Peace program, where I still volunteer my time (most recently last week). In addition to teaching future military leaders about foreign cultures, the program has brought a very diverse set of ethnic communities together and made Jersey City stronger as a result.



The second comes from former Acting Mayor and Ward C Councilman Joe Rakowski. Joe took over after Gerry McCann was indicted 20 years ago. He knows as well as anyone what centuries of corruption and patronage have done to this city.



I've dedicated my life to fighting waste, cutting red tape, and improving quality of life in Jersey City. I raised my kids here and have lived in the same house for over 30 years. Additionally, I've helped thousands of people over the years and have never asked for a "favor" in return.



If you'd like to read any of the pieces in the paper on the endorsements, here are the links:
