My name is Naeem Khan, and I’m running to be the next Mayor of Atlantic City.

I grew up here in New Jersey. Everything I have: my family, my businesses, my life, was built right here in Atlantic City. I love this city, Atlantic City is in my blood, and I’m running because I see how badly it’s being mismanaged. We cannot afford four more years of failure under the current administration.

I have lived and grown in Atlantic City. I’m a successful businessman of over 25 years, and I am doing this to give back to the people of the City. There is far too much waste and abuse in the Atlantic City government for it to continue.

Our streets aren’t safe. Our schools aren’t safe. Drugs and crime are out of control. I will fix that. I will bring real leadership, real solutions, and real results.
I want to leave this city better than I found it. If you give me the chance, I promise: Atlantic City will be stronger, safer, and better.

My name is Lisa Klassman, and I’m running for Councilwoman-at-Large in Atlantic City.

I didn't seek this, it sought me. I fell in love with Atlantic City years ago: the people, the culture, the energy, the potential. I believed in this city so much that I packed up my life and moved here to build something real. And I did.

I’ve spent years running successful local businesses, from a marketing agency to a popular food and fashion blog that showcases the amazing talent and small businesses that make Atlantic City shine. I’ve worked side by side with chefs, creators, entrepreneurs, and local families, helping them grow, build, and thrive.

Now, I’m running for office because I know that we can do better. We deserve safer streets, better schools, and a local government that actually works for the people. If you give me the opportunity, I will bring energy, accountability, and vision to City Hall. I will listen, I will lead, and together, we will make Atlantic City stronger, safer, and better than ever before!

My name is Ron Bailey, and I’m running for Councilman-at-Large in Atlantic City.

I’ve lived in Atlantic City my entire life. I started volunteering when I was just 12, with the Red Cross, eventually earning the Youth Volunteer Award and the Distinguished Citizenship Award. I later worked with the Atlantic City Surf, moving from bat boy to Assistant Director of the Grounds Crew. These experiences taught me the value of community, responsibility, and showing up for others.

I have served as an emergency medical technician and a member of the Atlantic City Community Emergency Response Team. I’ve been on the front lines during emergencies and crises, and I know what it means to serve under pressure.

If elected, I’ll bring that same commitment to City Council. I want to work alongside a mayor who is delivering real results, and help lead a council that puts community first. I believe we need to create more mentorship programs, invest in safe youth spaces and affordable family entertainment, and tackle the root causes of crime and addiction with real, coordinated efforts, not just talk. I’m not running for a title. I’m running because I care about the city that I grew up in!

My name is Sayed Kausar, and I’m running for Councilman-at-Large in Atlantic City.

Atlantic City is my home, and I’ve spent years working behind the scenes to help make this city stronger for families, for small businesses, and for every member of our diverse community. Now I’m running for City Council to take that work to the next level.

I’ve been a local business owner for over eight years, and I know the challenges local entrepreneurs face. That’s why I’ve dedicated so much of my time to community organizations that focus on support and stability.

For me, public service has never been about credit, it's about commitment. Whether it’s organizing neighborhood efforts, helping families in need, or mentoring others in our local associations, I’ve always believed that service starts with showing up.

If elected, I’ll work every day to make City Hall more accessible, efficient, and focused on the people who live here. My goal is to help build a city that works for all of us, because when we lift each other up, we all move forward together. I look forward to earning your trust, your support, and your vote.
