📰 News we're reading

• Is western New Jersey turning purple? (newjerseyglobe.com) — Democrats won municipal races in Long Hill as Morris County elected its first Democratic county commissioner in 53 years. Chris Russo’s victory will leave Republicans with a 6–1 county board majority in January. The broader western New Jersey results show Democratic gains, but whether they signal a lasting shift remains uncertain.
   

• More Than 1 in 5 Morris County Workers Work From Home, and Chatham Borough Leads at 37 Percent (shopmorriscounty.com) — Nearly 29% of Long Hill workers work from home, putting the township seventh among Morris County municipalities in a new Census-based analysis. The estimates pool responses from 2020 through 2024, including pandemic years, so they aren’t a snapshot of today’s routines. Countywide, the rate was 21.8%.
