WAYNE -- Candidates for Passaic County freeholder sparred over taxes Thursday -- with a few personal jabs slipped in -- as the Democrats defended their records against the Republicans' efforts to portray the county's government as broken.

Passaic County voters elected the youngest freeholder in memory Tuesday, ending a campaign in which Republicans were within reach of controlling county government but fell short. Theodore "T.J."
