The 2023 election results are in and certified, and it’s with so much pride and admiration that the BTDC can recognize Ana McCarthy’s historic first place finishfor a seat on Bernards’ all-Republican township committee.
At age 83, MJ Walsh is doing anything but resting on her laurels. While others may opt for a life of leisure, she’s a playwright and an actor. She was an instrumental part of the phone banking team in last month’s election, helping to propel candidate Ana Duarte McCarthy to a historic position on the Township Committee.
