Jersey City Mayor Steven Fulop has come out in support of the Jersey City Education Association’s latest incarnation of the “Education Matters” ticket: Sudhan Thomas, Angel Valentin and Gina Verdibello.

"I am proud to support three school board candidates who have proven they have the experience and vision necessary to move our schools forward,” Fulop wrote in a Facebook post this morning.

“Please join us for a fundraiser in support of the 2016 Education Matters team at Zeppelin Hall on 9/12.”

According to a copy of the invitation, Fulop is hosting the event and the JCEA PAC is collecting donations for the event (the suggestion donation is $20).

This marks the second year in a row where Fulop backs the Education Matters ticket, helping get the vote out for last year’s slate of Vidya Gangadin, Marilyn Roman and John Reichart – who sought three, three-year terms against a game opponent in Verdibello.
