Biography

Kramer, a longtime councilman and mayor of Asbury Park, was elected to the Board of Chosen Freeholders in the 1974 general election. After serving two, three-year terms, he was defeated for reelection to a third term in 1980. In 1981, he attempted a return to the Board, but was again defeated. Kramer was elected to his third and final term in 1982, but was defeated by his Republican opponent, former County Administrator Theodore J. Narozanick. He lost a 1988 re-match with Narozanick.
