NEWARK, N.J. -- For the second time in less than six months, residents of Hoboken will pick a mayor.
The election deja vu was created when Mayor Peter Cammarano resigned in July following his arrest on federal corruption charges.
Acting Mayor Dawn Zimmer, the city council president, is one of seven candidates vying to finish out Cammarano's term and serve until 2013. Top challengers are fellow Councilwoman Beth Mason, affordable housing developer Frank Raia and former municipal judge Kimberly Glatt.
