MEET THE CANDIDATE!

My name is Christina Cherry, and I’m running for Newark City Council At-Large because I believe our city deserves leadership that listens, shows up, and puts people first.

​

I am a proud South Ward resident, a retired U.S. Navy veteran, a mother, and a longtime community advocate. Service has shaped my life, both in uniform and at home in Newark. I know that strong communities are built through trust, transparency, and a government that works alongside the people it serves.
