I didn’t hear any exit poll results that support that kind of malicious accusation.  The message was loud and clear and the exit poll…

  • Resident says it’s time for voters to oust the status quo

  • No. of ballots cast for school vote was too low

    Do Millstone residents really want to be known as apathetic? It would seem so if you look at the number of voters who stepped forward and voiced their opinions about the school district’s $46.5 million referendum last Tuesday.
