Offers suggestion for homeless problem       Ican't believe what I was told. A homeless man who was sleeping in the New Brunswick railroad station was picked up and fined $250. He must either pay the fine or go to jail. Considering all our religious and sanctimonious elected officials, wouldn't you think that they would have provided a human... More ... Signs may be torn down, but support goes on       When we as a community can't demonstrate the freedoms we have as a nation, specifically freedom of speech, what kind of example are we setting? When political signs are displayed in support of a party, only to have individuals rip them down, you're infringing on my freedom of speech. More ... O'Brien is an honorable man, displays fiscal integrity and responsibility       We have been reading the Sayreville Democrats' ads and feel we have to tell the voters the truth. The Democrats are claiming to save open space and stop megadevelopments. What they don't tell you is that it was Kennedy O'Brien who created the Julian Capik Preserve, preserved our wellfields and cr... More ... Resident thinks mayor has missed too many meetings       To paraphrase Woody Allen, one of the most important elements of success is showing up. No doubt you've got to be involved in order to make things happen. If that is the measure of success, then Republican Mayor Kennedy O'Brien has failed in Sayreville. More ... O.B. voters should ask questions, keep scorecard on issues       This year I'm finally going to do it - that is, forget party lines, and in the case of an incumbent, I will vote for his or her opponent. There are too many entrenched officeholders, sometimes with multiple offices, making a career in elective office rather than treating it as a temporary trust. More ... O'Brien, not Democratic council, rates praise       Ihave received fliers and seen ads in the local papers attributing many of the good things accomplished during Kennedy O'Brien's tenure as mayor to the Democratic candidates. The people of Sayreville remember that Kennedy fought for the preservation of the wellfields that are now known as the Cap... More ... Kaiserman displays calm, clear, effective leadership       Over the past few years it's been my pleasure to work together with David Kaiserman on a Sayreville community board. David is our president, and we could not have asked for a better leader. During our meetings, I observed as others discussed what direction would be best. More ... Vote for those who support animal shelter       It may be true that good things come to those who wait, but those of us who have been waiting for the groundbreaking on the Old Bridge Animal Shelter addition and renovations are about to lose hope. More ... A vote for Phillips is a vote for the youth of Old Bridge       As president of the Raritan Bay Cougars youth football team and cheerleading organization, I want everyone to know what a strong supporter of youth sports Mayor James Phillips is. One can truly know a person by how good he or she is to our youth, and Mayor Phillips has demonstrated time and again ... More ... Greene and team will fight to curb overdevelopment       Iurge all Asian-Americans to come forward on Election Day, Nov. 6, and vote for Richard Greene for mayor of Old Bridge and for his entire team in order to lower taxes, cut waste and fight overdevelopment in Old Bridge. More ... Thinks it's time to break stranglehold on town's purse strings       Itry very hard to resist the urge to add to the "political pollution" that almost chokes us in November, but this year I think there is something too important not to say. I have been a lifelong Democrat and have never voted for a Republican. This year's local elections in Old Bridge will change ... More ...
