To everyone who was upset by the 2016 election. Now is the time to put your vote where your outrage is. Election Day is Tuesday, November 7, 2017.
In New Jersey, we have important races going on, from the Governor on down. There are clear choices to be made. Like many of you, I woke up on November 9, 2016, resolved to get off the sidelines and into the political arena. Since then, I’ve been working hard to get involved in local politics, and I’ve had the privilege of getting to know Mayor Kevin Kuchinski and Michael Ruger, who are the Democrats running for Hopewell Township Committee. They are both thoughtful, smart, and committed to fiscal responsibility and inclusive, progressive values.
You don’t have to take my word for it. See for yourself by watching the debate that took place last week. It soon will be available at the Hopewell Valley League of Women Voters website. Kevin and Michael were prepared, knowledgeable, and there was a clear difference between them and their Republican opponents.
Local elections matter. Vote November 7.
