“I believe that fully disclosing all campaign contributions is necessary because the people have the right to know who is financing politicians’ campaigns,” Councilman Doherty added earlier this week. “The more information voters have about a candidate, the better informed they are, and this will lead to a better decision at the voting booth. In addition, shedding light on the campaign finance system will ensure it is not abused by politicians at the expense of tax payers.”
I presume this will be listed as an in-kind contribution along with every source of funds that the Monmouth County Democrats have.

Dave, does the Belmar ordinance regarding campaign finance disclosure speak to who enforces it?
I don’t believe it does. I suppose it would be the borough clerk.
They forgot this one.
Increased Belmar’s debt substantially !
Doherty – YES…….Bean – NO
I like the idea of all politicians having to wear white nascar jumpsuits with the names of their sponsors emblazoned on the outside so we can see who owns them. Now that would be transparency !!!
