You can say it’s a trivial matter. But these Belmar Democrats can’t seem to comply with the law on even the most simple things.
I’ve run for office four times. You fill out the forms, you sign them and you send them in. What’s so difficult? Not a single report I ever submitted ever displayed a signature that was not one placed there by my own hand.
I guess Tom Brennan must be some sort of international jet-setter who’s never around when you need him to sign something. I would say there’s probably three people who have signed his name to some official document or another. But on the most recent filing posted on the Borough website, the document was clearly not signed by him and instead a photocopy of his signature from something else he must have signed was photoshopped in.
For some reason his 11 day pre-election report, although perfectly clear on the NJ ELEC website, on the Borough website looks like it’s from a cell phone photo taken from across a field on a windy day. It’s basically unreadable.
Here is the report as posted by the state:
And here is Belmar’s whatever:
If you compare the signatures at the bottom you can see that on the one posted by the Borough his signature is just pasted in. It’s much sharper than the rest of the document.
On top of that, the pasted-in signature was obviously done by someone different than the one on ELEC’s version. The one on Brennan’s 29 day report below looks similar to the pasted one. So which signature is really Tom’s?
You won’t get any help by looking at his signatures from his first campaign three years ago because they were signed by some third person, probably campaign treasurer Maureen Doherty, Matt’s sister.
Actually, the one done in April 2015 looks like it might have been done by some fourth person.
Again, you can say this is trivial and that I’m nitpicking. BUT THESE ARE THE SAME PEOPLE WHO HELD UP A TREE PLANTING FOR A WOMAN WHO DIED FROM CANCER, A TREE PLANTING THAT HER FRIENDS CAME FROM THOUSANDS OF MILES AWAY TO WITNESS, BECAUSE SOME STUPID SIGNATURE WAS MISSING FROM SOME STUPID FORM.
Pray that the recount confirms that Brennan lost.

Morals and ethics are not the norm in Barmore.
Agreed Dave. Tom Brennan is a puppet. Jennifer Nicolay is a puppet. Josh Vallario is a really nice guy who had no business even being close in this race. He didn’t knock on doors and he opted not to purchase lawn signs. The fine residents of Belmar are fed up ! Enough already !!! Hopefully the vote holds up and we can say bye to the puppet.Next up is Doherty and Nicolay. Hopefully Mr. Seebeck decides to run for office- the town needs him.
#1 – Correkt, but it’s not just hear. It’s all across the country.
Mike Seebeck please run next – this is the time – you’ll win.
This town is messed up. Procedures, requirements, authenticity , law abiding all not in the minds of our elected officials
#2. Facebook was my strategy. I reached thousand if residents a day like that. Far better than lawn signs.
LOCK HIM UP! LOCK HIM UP! LOCK HIM UP! Nothing would be finer than Brennan, Dirtyty, MaGovernor and the wenches behind bars.
#2 the proof is in the pudding. Josh without going door to door (which he did) and without signs (which we saved money) he still came out a winner.
#6. Nice try Josh. You reached hundreds and two thirds of your likes lived outside of Belmar, where by the way your contributions came from also. I guess you didn’t fail to get District 4 votes either.
Sour grapes again. Scolding for scolding sake again, very constructive. We will however continue to keep open minds given a chance. Let’s deal with tangibles, OK?
Again another disrespect for the rule of law, but then again this is the norm for the Matt Doherty regime.
#9, He failed in district 4 because nobody ever saw his face there, where Mr. Brennam knocked on ever door.
What are the usual number of democrat candidate votes cast in a non presidential election held on a cold, rainy, overcast day in the 4th district where Djais write in votes aren’t used to tilt the scales?
#12 Ok so I should have voted for Brennan because he knocks on doors?
#12 There are some in District 4 who were firmly swayed to voted for Mr. Vallario because Mr. Brennan knocked on their doors … and was true to form Tom Brennan.
I suspect that the reason Josh appears to have won had nothing to do with the method of campaigning and more to do with voters finally showing their disgust for the Mayor and the puppets despite the registration and patronage advantage they have.
Maybe 2018 summer they can hire more beach front workers,to get votes from.
#17 – I’m an old guy and do a bit of work here and there, but I assure you I would never sit on my butt doing nothing and call it a job. I feel bad for people who do that “work”.
#12 He may have knocked on every door
but didn’t get an answer because most of the Ocean blocks are summer rentals.
There was a reason for everything he did and he did it. Not bad for a non political politician.
14 & 15 – keeping it on topic and in context, the #12 reply was a response to the #9 statement regarding the loss in the often Republican winning district 4.
Many homes with Brennan signs whether vacated or not were visited by Candidate Vallario. For those who are uninformed it’s a strategy used in many elections.
How many of our blog reading voters were ever approached by poll takers regarding any election candidates here in Belmar? PS: Don’t count Frank Pallone’s sports jacketed young male door knockers on election day. Nor can you use Dave’s Blog poll’s.
#21 Gee thanks for all that vital information. Uh Duh
