First from the Democrats we have this:They filed electronically this year. I see Brian agreed to be the treasurer. I hope he does better than some of the Democrats’ previous treasurers, who, as you know, have had all sorts of problems with their filings. BTW, there is a new, recently uncovered problem that I will be telling you about soon.
From the other side – well actually pretty much the same side – we have this:I guess Belmar hasn’t had enough of Tom Burke running for Council yet. (4x)
So there will be a contested Republican primary this year. The Belmar Republican Committee will be announcing their official candidates very soon and whoever they are I endorse them.
BTW, I would love to see a contested primary on the Democratic side. There are a great many honest, intelligent and compassionate Democrats in Belmar that don’t approve of what’s going on and would make “people before politics” more than an empty slogan. I wish a couple of them would step up and work to create a principled, honest and locally focused Democratic party to replace the current urban style political machine that exists basically to advance the political career of one person.
Maybe I could finally then retire from writing the blog.
