[quote="please"][quote="hopelessly helping"][quote="guestagain"]Does this mean Dave will talk even more? I didn't think that was possible.[/quote] Republicans are always such sore losers[/quote] Let's not start that again. There were people registered from each national party that voted in Jay, Dan and Wynn when they got sick of the way the previous majority prioritized party over local. And there were people registered each party that voted for Susan. Both campaigns this time made a point of saying that party affiliation was not relevant for Cranbury and people took them at their word. If you thing Susan's election is some mandate for playing party politics locally again then the new 3-person majority will be short lived. One person aside the TC has played nicely the last few years, appointing people to Boards regardless of party affiliation, etc. Let's not revert. It won't work and people will respond at the next election if they sense they were deceived into believing the members had moved past that.[/quote]
