The borough will hold a special mayoral election on Tuesday to replace former mayor Thomas Harper.
Current Acting Mayor David Scott Timberman, a Republican, will face Douglas Arden Davis for the seat.
Harper resigned on Sept. 23 when he was banned from holding public office due to being charged with lying to investigators earlier that month.
His resignation came too late to remove him from the November ballot in an unusual election year when the majority of ballots cast were by mail. He was only the mayoral candidate and received the most votes, 113 to 24 write-in votes.
As a result, the borough was scheduled to hold a special election for mayor on Jan. 12 before Gov. Phil Murphy postponed special elections across the state to April 20 due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

Good Friday morning!
Gov. Phil Murphy is pushing yet another gun control package his third, even if several of the bills
are left over from previous gun legislation pushes.
Those bills stricter ammunition tracking and photo ID requirements for purchases, four-year renewal of gun purchase IDs and lock box home storage rules have something in common besides firearms: They passed the Assembly in 2019 but not the Senate.
Distinguished Citizen recipients.
The Chamber said Julian puts his talents as a builder and electrician to work to support various community projects and organizations, and Patsy dedicates multitudes of her time supporting individuals and organizations throughout the community.
“We feel overwhelmed by the honor of Distinguished Citizens. What we do is part of our makeup and we know that there are many people in Green River that are just as deserving, if not more so,” Patsy told SwetwaterNOW.
