Warren County Republicans Primaries and Convention Turmoil
The Warren County Republican primaries produced a Cameron Ring influence with Lindsey winning the Assembly delegates over Reeves. A borough caucus was run by a secret ring, angering about a hundred men who vow to oppose the ticket. The ensuing convention in Roscoe Hall nominated L F Watson for Congress and C W Stone for State Senate, with Reeves withdrawing and Lindsey winning Assembly. Contested judge races and snubs to Freehold Sugar Grove and Farmington sparked ongoing discontent and calls for reform.
