"Since this bill has become law, dual office holders should do the ethical thing and resign one of their elected offices," said Gardiner, a former Washington Township Councilwoman.  "Dual office holding creates a conflict of interest, and takes time away from both positions.  Paul Moriarty, Assemblyman/Mayor, voted for this legislation so he should have no problem giving one up."

There has been some speculation as to whether or not Moriarty would seek re-election as mayor when his seat is up next year, so Gardiner may get her wish.
