UFO enthusiast/Ghost Tracker/Conspiracy Theorist David Longenhagen says he will seek the Democratic nomination for State Assembly in the 31st district. He says he "would not have a problem working with the current legislators within Hudson County, most importantly State Senator Joseph V. Doria, Jr.," and he pledges to donate half of his legislative salary to "such worthy organizations as the PAL and the Boys & Girls Club." Longenhagen was the Republican candidate for State Assembly in the 19th district in 2005, losing to Democratic incumbents John Wisniewski and Joseph Vas, and ran unsuccessfully for Bayonne City Councilman in 2006.
Editor's Note: Either the Bayonne City Clerk failed to enforce the residency requirement for local candidates, since Longenhagen had not lived in Bayonne for one year before he ran for the Council, or Longenhagen moved out of Middlesex County before the end of his '05 Assembly race.
