Vote for change! The role of the Township Committee is to be looking forward, providing solid leadership, and considering new perspectives thoughtfully and collaboratively. We do NOT have that currently.

It’s pretty simple, really. It says something when you support a candidate for governor who says he’s all in on Trump. We believe Bernards Township deserves better.

Each year we hear the same rhetoric from our opponents → They'll oppose overdevelopment, claim it's because of Republican rule that our town has a balanced budget, etc., etc.

But you know what they say...

"If you always do what you've always done, you'll always get what you've always got."

Stealing signs is not how you win an election. Signs have been stolen or damaged from public and private property. Police reports have been filed.

Over a dozen signs have been stolen or damaged. We ask our opponents and their supporters to respect our First Amendment right.

We invite you to meet the candidates and enjoy a complimentary cocktail and appetizer!
