The following concerns have been expressed several times,…

Candidate’s platform, or personal agenda?
Candidate’s platform, or personal agenda? Lest the Allentown voters forget, Stephanie Smith is involved in her own "Boundary Line Battle with the Borough." Smith wants you to believe that she has been deceived by the borough and indeed persecuted by outlandish behavior on the part of the borough officials. Nothing could be further from the…

Candidate cannot lead by complaining, judging work of others
Normally I think positively.

Resident asks, ‘What’s Pfefferkorn’s platform?’ In all of John Pfefferkorn’s political missiles, he appears to be running against various groups — the Millstone Coalition (a charitable and bipartisan political action group), the Township Committee (our elected government), and members of the township boards and commissions (volunteers who give time to community service.) All statements are…

A vote for Pfefferkorn is a vote for quality in Millstone
How many times have we been down this political path before? Too many if you ask me. Only two candidates are in the race for Millstone Township Committee. If we dig a bit deeper we will find that there is only one clear choice. It is my opinion that this choice is John Pfefferkorn. I…
