Residents of Hoboken’s First Ward were back at the polls on Tuesday for a runoff vote to determine a tightly contested city council seat. It’s a race that has become vitriolic down the home stretch, marred by claims that one candidate, Paul Presinzano, benefited from an alleged vote-buying scheme. Those accusations came from Presinzano’s opponent, Rafi Cordova, who has called on the state attorney general to investigate.
