  • LETTERS: Barrett deserves another four years

    To the editor:     Let’s face it. We all know it. Carol Barrett must be returned to the South Brunswick Township Council.

  • LETTERS: For balance on council

    To the editor:     As one of the candidates receiving the South Brunswick Post’s endorsement, I am honored. Being recognized in this way by a regular observer of the Township Council is rewarding and much appreciated.    Equally, it was heartening to read that the Post’s editors have concluded there must be a political balance brought…

You correctly note that Mr Van Hessen objected to the Democrat majority’s restructuring of the township’s debt and using all the surplus as revenue. This was a blatant attempt to keep the tax rate artificially low…

  • LETTERS: Camarota best for council

    To the editor:     All things being equal, I would concur with the editorial in the Post that endorsed a bipartisan balance on the Township Council.    However, I sincerely feel that "balance" is only one important quality to be sought. The other is the "contribution" that can be made by the individual candidate. After several…

    To the editor:     Last year, as a high school junior, I took a course entitled AP Language and Composition. An amazing teacher, Mark Ziminski, taught my class the importance of rhetorical and writing abilities in today’s complex world.
