Republicans have won 11 of the 13 state and federal elections over the last 5 years and every race since 2009. I didn’t bother typing it all in but they’ve also won every county race since 2009. Yet they’ve only won 2 of the last 7 local races.
There seems to be a couple of hundred voters who consistently split their ballots. I’m sure if you asked them the Democrats would say it’s because they are so great. Obviously (at least to me) it’s not that. I think some other factor is at work here. Any ideas?

Mr Administrator,you and I both know that there have been concerns identified over the past 2 or 3 elections with the local election results in Belmar. In working with the proper officials, and with a team of diligent concerned citizens, a very close bi-partisan eye is being cast on the Belmar election process this year. This team effort is motivated to have our local results be truly a representation of the local Belmar voters. We want for whom ever wins the elections, to feel it was a clean and fair election untainted by allegations of impropriety.
