[AsburyPark] Re: It does matter
I tailed off - It may not matter who gets elected is the point without being able to deliver a real plan of action. Note the real plan of action. Not living in AP, but being there everyday more or less and having some interest (not as owner) in a building or 2 - there HAS been a difference - as I said - in the people that buy OR rent AND take pride in what they have. That's what you need. I never understand the create jobs stuff - is that government jobs or public sector jobs ? One of the largest employers is right down the road - Jersey Shore Medical and all the doctors and related businesses. Do any of these already funded programs or the school have any programs towards a career in the medical field? Yahoo!

The main area around the Transportation Center, the gateway to AP by rail and bus - is no doubt a __.

[AsburyPark] ALL BUT A-TEAM DENY AFFILIATION WITH 42 BALLOT MESSENGERS
Every single allegation of sleazy and potentially illegal campaigning has been about the A-Team. Asbury has a long history of shady politics that the Council over the past ten years has worked hard to fix. Above all given that history, Asbury needs to be a place that businesses, vistors and residents feel is honestly run. Is the A-Team who we want leading our city if this is how they are campaigning? ALL BUT A-TEAM DENY AFFILIATION WITH 42 BALLOT MESSENGERS TWO MORE MESSENGERS SIGN AFFIDAVITS By Molly Mulshine Three of the four tickets in the Asbury Park council race have denied affiliation with 42 people who are acting as ballot messengers in the election. Campaign managers for the AP Out Front, Forward Asbury Park and One Asbury tickets have said their candidates are not using volunteers or paying workers to deliver messenger ballots to voters. Voters may designate a messenger to bring them a ballot to complete, which can then be mailed or hand-delivered back to election offices for tabulation. The remaining slate, the A-Team, has paid 10 campaign workers to act as messengers, compensating them $100 per person for gathering 10 messenger ballots each, candidate Duanne Small has confirmed. Two more of the people listed as messengers, Knowryl Hammary and Byron Hall, are named as chair person and treasurer, respectively, for all five A-Team candidates' personal campaign accounts. The A-Team candidates refuse to disclose whether any of the remaining 30 messengers are affiliated with their campaign. The A-Team candidates are Duanne Small, Jim Keady, Nora Hyland, Remond Palmer and Daniel Harris. Following allegations of mishandling of ballots from the campaign manager of the AP Out Front ticket, County Clerk M. Claire French decided to require all messengers to sign affidavits affirming that they understand that breaking the rules governing the messenger ballot process is a third-degree crime. French mailed the affidavits to all messengers on April 17. The Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office is now investigating the ballot process in the city as well, French said. The Asbury Park Sun sent A-Team campaign manager John Napolitani a list of questions regarding the use of messengers by the A-Team campaign. The Sun asked about messengers' affiliation with the campaign, whether more messengers were paid, and how the group has ensured that ballots are delivered directly to voters as required. The candidates chose not to respond to the questions, Napolitani said, and instead issued the following statement on behalf of all five candidates: The A-Team is following all applicable election laws and guidelines as outlined by the County Clerk's office. We are committed to ensuring that the citizens of Asbury Park have a free and fair election. Reached by phone today, A-Team candidate Duanne Small reiterated the group's statement, and added that he and his running mates are working closely with the County Clerk to resolve issues. He said he does not know who the campaign's designated messengers are, and he does not know who is in charge of his campaign's messengers. Whatever the county requires, that's what we will abide by, he said. Two more messengers signed their affidavits since last week, according to records in the election offices of the County Clerk. Those messengers are Jaisun Lewinski and Pamela S. Gideon. Thirty-five of the 42 messengers still have not returned their affidavits. Since the affidavit requirement was put in place, no new messengers have stepped up to request ballots, according to the election offices, although some existing messengers have requested additional ballots. If messengers do not return their affidavits, the Prosecutor's Office will follow up with the voters who designated those messengers, French said. In total, 336 messenger ballots were taken by messengers to give to voters, according to records in the election offices. Ninety-six of those ballots have been returned to the offices by voters to be opened and tabulated on Election Day, leaving 240 messenger ballots that have yet to be returned. In the 2009 Asbury Park council election, no voters requested messenger ballots. In that election, the fifth-place winner of the election received only 83 more votes than did the sixth-place candidate, who did not win. The 42 people may act as messengers for up to 10 voters. Voters can vote by messenger ballot by filling out a vote-by-mail [VBM] ballot application and designating a messenger, as well as an assistor if applicable. The messenger can bring the VBM application to the county clerk's office in Freehold, and receive a messenger ballot in return. The messenger must then go directly to the voter and give him or her the ballot. From there, the voter can either mail the ballot to the county clerk's office or designate a bearer to bring the ballot back. Election Day is May 14. Twenty-two candidates are vying for all five
