A CLEAR CHOICE FOR EAST WINDSOR VOTERS

Who do you want to lead the Town of East Windsor?

Sometimes it seems that all politicians are alike.  But this is not the case with the elections being held for selectman in the Town of East Windsor.  This time, voters have a very clear choice - the question is, who do you want to lead the Town of East Windsor for the coming term?

Do you want someone like Denise Menard and the Democratic slate who have -

  • Been active in re-doing many of the Town’s roads . .
  • Have been diligently working to improve the Town’s schools . .
  • Been active in promoting and encouraging new development and industry in the  Town such as gas stations, hotels, etc.   . .
  • Been doing all that they can to lower the tax burden for townspeople by bringing new business into the Town . .
  • Made sure our veterans are honored and making sure we show them in tangible ways.

Do you want someone like Mr. Dearborn who -

  • Cost taxpayers enormous amounts of money in legal fees, time and resources in order to force him to adhere to Town regulations.  A court of law found him guilty on all counts against him - ordering him to adhere to the Town regulations and to reimburse the Town for its costs it incurred to make sure he did.  The court shut his business down for a time to force him to do what he should have done all along.
  • Has shown himself not worthy of our trust to help run the Town by his unwillingness to follow its regulations himself - for example by filling in wetlands and ignoring stipulations put on approved plans to further his own interests. 
  • Is someone who has been called out and disciplined by the Town for violating its ethics and he has to attend school to learn how to conduct himself in Town proceedings.
  • By his actions, shown that he has his own interests in mind and not those of the people who have the opportunity to put him into office. 

The choice is clear - do you want someone who holds high standards like Denise Menard and the Democratic slate and who are Semper Fi people (meaning always faithful)?

Do you want someone like Steve Dearborn who is clearly self-serving and does not conduct himself in a way so as to put the Town and its peoples’ interests first?  If this is the best that the Republican party can find to lead our Town, do you really want to vote for
