Why These Seats Matter in Florence Township
U.S. Census data tells the story: 57% of renters in Ward 3, District 2 are cost-burdened, paying more than 30% of their income just to keep a roof over their heads. Nearly 1 in 3 families pays halftheir income on rent. That's the math of impossible choices: rent or groceries, rent or healthcare, rent or everything else.
Meanwhile, the Burlington County Democratic Committee seats for our district have sat vacant for years. Election after election, nobody has filed to run. While our neighborhood has been dealing with warehouse overdevelopment, rising costs, and federal budget cuts threatening healthcare and food assistance, there has been no local voice inside the party speaking up for us. Year after year, someone else has made the decisions for Ward 3, District 2.
But here's the good news: Democratic leaders are starting to deliver. After nearly a decade of pressure, Burlington County just announced a major fix for Florence's truck-choked intersections. That's what happens when we show up and fight.
We are running as write-in candidates to fill those vacant seats because the 57% of cost-burdened families deserve neighbors at the table. Write in our names on June 2: GAVIN ROZZI (R-O-Z-Z-I, like pizza) and BRITNEY FERDETTA(F-E-R-D-E-T-T-A, two T's).

What Is County Committee and Why Does It Matter?
County committee members are the grassroots foundation of the Democratic Party. Each voting district elects two representatives (one male, one female) who collectively make up the Burlington County Democratic Committee. They don't make headlines, but they make the decisions that shape who runs, who wins, and what the party fights for.
In 2022, Zero Votes Were Cast for These Seats
No one filed a petition to run. No write-in votes were recorded. Not a single ballot was cast for Ward 3, District 2's County Committee seat, male or female. Our neighborhood had no voice when the party made decisions about endorsements, resources, and priorities.
Who Gets Endorsed
Committee members vote on which candidates receive party support in primaries and general elections.
Who Gets Resources
Campaign support, volunteer networks, and party infrastructure flow through the county committee.
What Issues Matter
Committee members shape the party's priorities and influence which issues get attention.
When Ward 3, District 2 has empty seats, our neighborhood has no voice in these decisions. Someone else decides what matters for us. That is why filling these seats matters.
What Could Have Been Different?
When the party debated endorsements in recent elections, no one from our district was in the room. When housing affordability discussions happened, the 57% of cost-burdened renters in Ward 3, District 2 had no advocate. When warehouse development decisions affected our roads, our neighborhood had no seat at the table. Every empty chair is a missed opportunity to speak up.
Your Write-In Votes Matter More Than You Think
In races where zero voteswere cast last time, your write-in votes have real power. If just 20 neighbors write in both names, that's 20 more voices than these seats have heard in years. This isn't a presidential race where your vote is one of millions. This is your neighborhood, and every vote counts.
The Next Generation of Democratic Leadership Starts Local
If you are a young professional wondering how to make a difference in politics, county committee is where it starts. This is how you shape the party from the ground up, build relationships, and ensure the issues that matter to the next generation get heard.

What This Race Is About
See drone footage →Open Space & Trails
See before & after →The 5th Street Rail Trail transformed an abandoned rail corridor into a walkable amenity for Florence families. When we push back on development, we can win investments in our community.
Property Taxes and Costs
New Jersey has the highest property taxes in the nation. Florence Township passed Resolution 2025-110 demanding Trenton restore diverted energy tax revenue that belongs to us.
Protecting What We Earned
Federal budget cuts threaten $3.6 billion annually from New Jersey's Medicaid and food assistance for 800,000 families. Hands off Medicare, Social Security, and Medicaid.
Housing Affordability
57% of renters in our district are cost-burdened. 1 in 3 families pays half their income just to stay housed. The Census data tells the story.
Our Industrial Legacy
Florence absorbed a century of foundry pollution. Now state law gives us leverage to ensure development benefits our community, not just the companies building here.
Print and share with neighbors
The fastest way to help: print one of these and hand it to a neighbor in Ward 3, District 2.
These Seats Have Been Empty Long Enough.
Year after year, no one filed to run. Democratic leaders are starting to deliver for Florence, but our neighborhood needs neighbors at the table.
