McCarthy & Bannan:”Change the Status Quo”

October 3, 2025

Ana Duarte McCarthy and Joan Bannan know firsthand how close local elections can be. They worked hard to connect with voters and served us well. Being the lone Democrat on the Township Committee is not for the faint of heart.

Joan Bannan served on the Committee from 2019-2021.

Ana Duarte McCarthy currently serves, having won in 2023. For over 90 years there are only a handful of Democrats who have served, and all have served as the lone Democrat. It’s time for a change. And let’s make some history, and change the majority. Please vote.
