Growing Momentum as More Republican Mayors and Local Party Leaders Back Selen for Congress

“As the left-wing of the national Democratic Party tries to pull us toward socialism, it’s a great opportunity for our Party to nominate someone like Tayfun who has lived the American dream, built an impressive business career, and then served his community as Mayor and County Commissioner,” said Rockaway Borough Mayor Tom Mulligan.

“Tayfun knows so many of the grassroots leaders in our Party from his selection at the Morris County Convention in early 2020 and then working side by side with them in his impressive county-wide victory as Commissioner later that fall. Even better, unlike Mikie Sherrill, Tayfun knows the issues facing our communities and is working to solve them every day on the Board of Commissioners,” said Randolph GOP Chairwoman Sydney Ugalde. “As Republican Chair in one of the largest Republican towns in the district, I’m proud to endorse Tayfun and help build the campaign needed at the grassroots level to defeat Mikie Sherrill and win back this seat.”

Selen was previously endorsed by four Morris County Commissioners, including Stephen Shaw, Deb Smith, Kathy DeFillippo, and Deputy Director John Krickus.

“I want to thank these important Republican leaders for joining our cause and continuing the momentum we are building at the grassroots level,” said Selen, Morris County’s Director of the Board of Commissioners. “Washington needs a serious shake-up to get America back on the right track. This campaign is growing every single day, because local leaders know the path to knocking out Nancy Pelosi as Speaker comes through districts like this one.”
