Arthur Manner

Arthur A. Manner (December 18, 1912-August 1981) was an American Republican Party politician who served in the New Jersey General Assembly from 1972 to 1974. He served as a Mayor and Township Committeeman in Berkeley Heights, New Jersey and as a Union County Freeholder. When Republican Hugo Pfaltz declined to seek re-election in 1971, Manner ran for the State Assembly on a ticket with incumbent Peter J. McDonough, defeating Democrats Eugene Campbell and A. Charles Walano by a wide margin.[1] He lost his bid for re-election to a second term in 1973, a year when Democrats scored massive gains during the Watergate scandal. With McDonough running for the State in the newly-drawn District 22, Manner ran with another GOP Assemblyman, Herbert H. Kiehn; they were beaten by Democrats Betty Wilson (New Jersey Politician) and Arnold D'Ambrosa.[2] Manner sought a comeback in 1975, but lost the Republican primary to Donald DiFrancesco, the Scotch Plains Municipal Attorney, by 1,067 votes.[3]
