In an editorial, Jersey City resident Kathy Frazier details why she will be voting for Jim McGreevey for mayor in the non-partisan December 2nd runoff.
Jersey City stands at a crossroads, and our next mayor must be someone who understands the full breadth of this city, its diverse neighborhoods, its long-standing struggles, and its tremendous potential. That leader is Jim McGreevey.
Jim McGreevey has a clear and actionable vision for Jersey City: real solutions for housing, stronger public schools, safer parks and meaningful jobs for our youth.
These aren’t talking points or empty promises, they’re priorities grounded in decades of public service and a lifetime commitment to improving people’s lives.
Jim McGreevey’s opponent speaks in soundbites, offering lofty ideas without the experience or depth, to turn them into results.
You cannot lead a city you barely know. Jersey City is more than a few shiny buildings downtown; it’s Greenville, Bergen-Lafayette, the Heights, the West Side, and every block where families are simply asking for fairness, safety, and opportunity.
James Solomon has not shown he understands these communities Jim McGreevey has spent years walking them, listening to them, and fighting for them.
Jim McGreevey’s leadership is proven. As former Mayor of Woodbridge and former Governor of New Jersey, he brings unmatched experience in management, crisis response, and coalition-building.
He understands how government works and more importantly, how it should work for the people. His compassion is not theoretical; it is lived, demonstrated by his hands-on work with re-entry programs and with underserved residents whose needs are too often ignored.
While others divide the city into winners and losers, Jim McGreevey is determined to end the “tale of two cities” and build One Jersey City a city where opportunity is not determined by your zip code and where every neighborhood receives the respect and investment it deserves.
Jim McGreevey has the vision. He has the heart. He has the experience. And he is the only candidate prepared to unite this city and deliver real results for every resident.
Jim McGreevey isn’t running for just downtown he’s running for everyone.
