Description | David B. Crabiel, a Middlesex County Freeholder for 27 of the last thirty years, passed away earlier today. Since the indictment and criminal conviction of former Senate President John Lynch, Crabiel has been the most powerful figure in Middlesex County politics.
He was 78.
The brother of J. Edward Crabiel, who served as a State Senator and as New Jersey Secretary of State, David Crabiel has held public office since 1960, when he was elected to the Milltown Borough Council. He spent 19 years in local government, including eleven as Mayor.
Crabiel was elected to the Board of Freeholders in 1978 and served until his defeat in the 1991 Republican landslide. He was again elected in 1993, and has been the Freeholder Director since 1998. |
