: Liberty State Park- Mayor 
:                 Glenn D. Cunnignham opened the official

:                     campaign of the Reform Democrats heralding 
: the "Liberation of Hudson County," flanked by a full slate of candidates on a beautiful, 
: if blustery afternoon here.  The ticket of Cunningham with Louis Manzo and                
:  Anthony Chiappone, both running for 
:                 assembly seats, was Joined by Willie 
:                 Flood Jerscy City and Melba Walsh 
:                 of Bayonne.
:                    Flood is a long-time activist 
:                 and career educator who is the Reform 
:                 candidate for County Clerk.
:                 Walsh who had run for Bayonne council and
:                 actually won in machine votes, lost 
:                 narrowly in highly controversial and 
:                 contested absentee balloting. Walsh 
:                 rounds out the ticket as the first 
:                 woman to run for County Executive. 
:                 Walsh said that her experience with the 
:                 council race seeing the opposition up 
:                 close only made her that much more 
:                 determined to resist the Hudson 
:                 County Democratic Organization's 
:                 brand of politics.
:           Flood said that "I will not he a
:    no-show person. I will not be involved 
: in a government process of no-bid 
: contracts, and patronage and i av-for- 
: play politics." in a remark aimed at the
:    opposition. Flood was terminated
:    from her position of 12 years when the 
:  opposition administration took office 
:  in what could only be seen as a politi- 
:  cal purge.
:           Mayor Glenn Cunningham
:  said "This is the beginning of the lib- 
: eration of Hudson County: Operation
:    Hudson Freedom. Things here have to 
:  change. It's good that we have this
: strong fresh breeze here, to keep away 
:  all the hot air coming from the court 
:  house." Cunningham apparently was 
: joking about the announcement earlier 
: the same morning on the County Court 
:  House steps of the opposition Hudson 
:  County Democratic Organization slate
:    of candidates. That slate includes L.
:  Harvey Smith who will oppose 
: Cunningham in the race for the 31st.
:  District Senate Seat. Smith won his
:  current Jersey City Council seat only 
: by riding Cunningham's coattails into
:    office.
