A NEW VOICE FOR PROGRESS

Andy Meissner and his wife Christine have lived in Mount Olive since 1984, first on Flanders-Drakestown Road and then beginning in 1995, in Flanders Crossing.  Andy and Christine raised a daughter and son in Mount Olive and are now proud grandparents.  Andy retired from AT&T last year after 35 years in leadership positions in Marketing, Program Management and Information Systems.  

Andy’s passion for politics began in 1968 when his family saw both Richard Nixon and Hubert Humphrey campaign for president at a local airport on Long Island. As a teenager, Andy canvassed with local assembly and town council candidates and was elected to several positions in high school and college.  Since 2008, Andy has been actively involved in voter registration, phone banking and canvassing. Andy’s priorities for the Mount Olive Democrats are to continue to build our organization, provide a home for people to share their passions for our country and our democratic values, re-elect Congressman Tom Malinowski, and provide opportunities to participate and contribute in as many ways as possible. Andy would like to meet with as many people as possible either over coffee or while canvassing through each of your districts (his real passion!) to talk about our experiences, unique talents and suggestions on how we can all be successful in 2020 and beyond.

Irene and her husband Sergio have lived in Mount Olive since 1980. We have raised two daughters and a son and now have four beautiful grandchildren. Irene has worked as a Payroll Coordinator at Ronetco Supermarkets since 1997. Irene also helped her husband open & run an electric motor repair business from 1990 to 2018. Irene has served as a volunteer for the Girl and Boy Scouts of America, Mount Olive Park Partners, League of Women Voters and St. Andrews Greek Orthodox Church. Irene also founded the Mount Olive Volleyball Association and served as the President for 10 years. Irene has been involved with the Mount Olive Democrats since 2017 and ran for a Town Council in 2019. Irene is proud of her contributions to the successful 2018 Malinowski campaign and is thrilled with the excellent work Tom Malinowski is doing to represent our district. She looks forward to building the Mount Olive Democratic Committee and celebrating a winning 2020 for all of our candidates.

Judi and her husband Robert moved to Mount Olive in 2015, after residing in Califon, NJ for twenty-five years.  They have two daughters, a son and nine adorable grandchildren.  Judi worked in the healthcare industry for thirty years, ranging from veterinary medicine to certified ophthalmology assistant. 

While always interested in politics, Judi’s passion began with the Barack Obama campaign and has grown with time.  Being a part of the Mount Olive Democrats since 2017 has been informative and exciting.  The experience has provided the opportunity to meet and engage with our neighbors and their concerns.

Judi is proud of the work that was accomplished in the successful election of Tom Malinowski in 2018.  She is looking forward to helping the Mount Olive Democratic Committee grow and winning 2020 for our candidates.
