Vice Chair- Liza Darmstadt
Liza first came to Tewksbury in 1960; her parents opened the Kitchen Caboodle in the early 1970s in a garage they restored in Mountainville. She has been active in Democratic campaigns since high school, and she and her husband Robert contributed to and worked for the Carter campaign. She holds a B.A. in Liberal Arts from the New School, and an M.A. in Cultural Anthropology from Rutgers – New Brunswick. She and her husband Robert moved back to Tewksbury full-time in 1985, and both of their sons went through the local school system from Kindergarten through Grade 12. She worked on Tewksbury PTA projects such as homework time per grade and computer use and purchase policies, and volunteered with Cub Scouts and various school activities. After writing instructions for computer users for ten years, she changed careers and started to work as a teacher. She now works in Plainfield, NJ, teaching English to English Language Learners in K through Grade 5.

Secretary- Judy May
Judy is past chair of the Scenic Roads Commission, and has served on the Election Board since moving here from Madison. She is a retired teacher, and past president of the United Jewish Federation of Morris-Sussex, now MetroWest. Judy and her husband, Paul, have lived in Tewksbury for 17 years. Their daughter lives in Vermont and their son in Copenhagen. Consequently, they are often in transit somewhere!

Treasurer- Deborah Huber
Deb is a lifelong resident of central New Jersey. She grew up in North Plainfield and has lived in Tewksbury since 1987. After a corporate career in the technology field, she took early retirement to pursue other interests, especially progressive social movements such as NOW, Peace Action, and the Community Diversity Council of Hunterdon County. She advocates for a healthier lifestyle, following principles she learned by studying various aspects of holistic medicine. In 2004 she was elected to represent District 4 on the Hunterdon County Democratic Committee and continues to serve in that position.
