| John Pallone | (1955–Present) | 2018 to present | John Pallone is the 36th and current Mayor of Long Branch, New Jersey. He was first elected on May 8, 2018 over then-incumbent Mayor Adam Schneider and School Board Member Avery Grant. He was re-elected to a second term on May 10, 2022. His second term as Mayor ends in 2026. Mayor Pallone is a fourth-generation Long Branch native, the son of a police detective sergeant, and the younger brother of Congressman Frank Pallone.[{{cite news |title= Pallone Swamps Schneider In Long Branch Mayoral Race |url=https://patch.com/new-jersey/longbranch/pallone-swamps-schneider-long-branch-mayoral-race |newspaper= Long Branch Patch |date= May 8, 2018 |access-date= 2018-05-08 }}] He was sworn in on July 1, 2018, by Governor Phil Murphy.[{{cite news |title= Long Branch: Governor Murphy Swears in New Mayor John Pallone |url= https://www.app.com/story/news/politics/2018/07/01/gov-phil-murphy-john-pallone-long-branch/745106002/ |newspaper= Long Branch Patch |date= July 1, 2018 |access-date= 2018-07-01 }}] John Pallone's first run for public office was in the 1990 election in which he ran on Adam Schneider's ticket for City Council and won. He then decided to run against Schneider for Mayor in the May 1994 election in which he lost by approximately 500 votes.[{{cite news |title=Mayoral Campaign Threatens to Divide City |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1994/05/08/nyregion/long-branch-journal-mayoral-campaign-threatens-to-divide-city.html |quote=Mayor Adam Schneider, a 39-year-old lawyer who came into office in 1990 |newspaper=New York Times |date=May 8, 1994 |access-date=2018-02-01 }}] Pallone ran again for City Council in 2010. In a field of 20 candidates running for 5 open seats, he narrowly won the last open seat by 11 votes over Schneider's running mate, Allan Menkin. He then won re-election to the Council in 2014 on Schneider's ticket and was the top vote-getter. Pallone decided to run against Schneider again in the May 2018 election. Ultimately, he overwhelmingly won the election along with his entire ticket of running mates for City Council. Pallone nearly earned double the number of votes that Schneider earned in the final tally. He was re-elected unopposed to a second 4-year term as Mayor on May 10, 2022, along with his entire slate of incumbent council members and was again sworn in by Governor Murphy.[{{Cite web|url=https://newjerseyglobe.com/local/pallone-council-incumbents-win-re-election-unopposed-in-long-branch/|title=Pallone, council incumbents win re-election unopposed in Long Branch|date=May 11, 2022|website=New Jersey Globe}}] |
