Kelly gets Chris Smith's endorsement

Ocean County Freeholder Jack Kelly will officially announce his candidacy tomorrow, but that’s not all – he’ll also tout the support of U.S. Rep. Chris Smith.

Last week, Kelly’s likely primary opponent in Burlington County, Medford Mayor Chris Myers, announced his candidacy alongside Rep. Jim Saxton.

It is unclear whether Smith will be present for the announcement, which will be held tomorrow afternoon at 2:00 at the law office of Ocean County Republican Chairman George Gilmore in Toms River.
