According to a story on the Jersey Journal/Hoboken Now, Michele Russo has indeed won the job for the County.  The story also notes she is to start immediately.

Michele Russo is described as Anthony Russo’s ex-wife, but MSV thinks it’s an error.

The photo there also looks vaguely familiar:

Horsey will look into that too.

Hey did you folks call the County Executive Tom DeGise?  Apparently not enough did.
