Letter: Middletown needs new leadership

The following letter was written by Middletown Township resident Mary Mahoney, who just happens to be joining Sean Byrnes as a candidate for Township Committee. The letter appears in the Asbury Park Press:

During the last nine months, I have come to know Sean Byrnes as a member of the Middletown Township Committee. His ideas for improving Middletown are sound and affordable.

Unfortunately, the Republican majority on the committee — a majority the GOP has held for 30 years — has blocked most of his proposals. The budget problems we face now could have been avoided had his recommendations been approved. Being the only true fiscal conservative on the committee, he has never voted to increase taxes.

For many years, the needs of people in this town have been neglected. This must be stopped.

I am honored to be Byrnes' running mate because I share his vision and commitment to build a better quality of life in Middletown, so that all people feel their government is responsive to their needs and concerns.

On Nov. 2, vote for Byrnes and Mahoney.

Mary Mahoney

Mike,
I saw this letter today on the AHH in its entirety. The letter was good on the APP, but even better on AHH.
As usual the APP takes liberty in editing letters to the ed.
