Said Chairman Zisa, “I’m very excited to see so many Republicans stepping up to be candidates in the 2024 election. After suffering through the radical progressive administrations of Joe Biden and Phil Murphy, whose policies have trickled down to Bergen County government, we believe voters are ready for a change to leaders who put America’s middle class ahead of criminals, illegal aliens and far-left progressive causes.”
The nominating convention is Tuesday, March 19 at the Hasbrouck Heights VFW, where county committee members and Republican elected officials will vote for the candidates of their choosing. Winners will be awarded the Bergen County column and slogan.

The Bergen County Republican Party’s Policy Committee recently announced their endorsement of President Donald Trump for re-election in the upcoming 2020 presidential race. This decision comes as no surprise, as the committee has long been a strong supporter of the President and his policies.
The endorsement was made after careful consideration and discussion among committee members, who believe that President Trump has delivered on his promises to the American people and has successfully implemented conservative policies that have benefited the country as a whole. The committee cited the President’s record on job creation, economic growth, and national security as key factors in their decision to endorse him for a second term.
In a statement released by the committee, they expressed their confidence in President Trump’s ability to continue leading the country in the right direction and to further advance conservative principles. They also highlighted his commitment to appointing conservative judges to the federal bench, which has been a key priority for many Republicans.
The endorsement of President Trump by the Bergen County GOP Policy Committee is likely to have a significant impact on the upcoming election, as Bergen County is one of the most populous and politically influential counties in New Jersey. The committee’s support could help rally Republican voters in the county and across the state to support President Trump’s re-election bid.
Overall, the endorsement of President Trump by the Bergen County GOP Policy Committee is a significant development in the 2020 presidential race and underscores the strong support that the President continues to enjoy among Republican voters in New Jersey. It will be interesting to see how this endorsement plays out in the coming months leading up to the election.
