During the campaign, Loncto, an appointed incumbent, said he hoped to be able to introduce a budget with a zero tax increase next year without impacting the top quality of Ridgewood education. Loncto, a CPA and a former U.S. Army officer, defeated challenger Gina Damasco, an attorney with the U.S. Department of Education. Loncto received 1,347 votes and Damasco earned 952.
