Who says America’s political parties can’t get along?

Republican state Assemblyman Anthony M. Bucco (R-25th Dist.) brought a proclamation and a hug to Saturday’s 60th birthday bash for Morristown Mayor Tim Dougherty, a Democrat.

Organized by First Lady Mary Dougherty, the block party drew family, friends and neighbors together for an afternoon of food, deejay music and birthday greetings.
