The 2023 South Orange Municipal Election will take place on Tuesday, May 9, 2023. According to the Village Clerk Ojetti Davis, “Offices subject to election are Village President & three (3) seats on the Village’s Board of Trustees. If you are interested in receiving a candidate packet, please email the Clerk’s Office at: clerksoffice@southorange.org, using the subject line: 2023 Municipal Election Candidate Packet Request.

The seats up for election are currently held by Village President Sheena Collum, who is finishing her second full term, and Trustees Donna Coallier, Summer Jones and Steve Schnall. Coallier announced in December that she would not seek reelection.
