This year there is a real chance that Democrats can take one or two seats on the Somerset County Freeholder Board. For years the myth of the "good managers" Republican Freeholders has kept them in power as they're raised tax collections by millions every year with unchecked spending.
Shockingly, Republican Freeholder Peter Palmer voluntarily said "So What" to the fact that many managers in the county are paid more than 90 percent of Governors in the United States. Democratic councilman Doug Singleterry from North Plainfield nails him by noting that Palmer may pass out high salaries all he wants, Singleterry has voted against pay raises in these difficult times.
You can donate to Singleterry and his running mate Cecilia Birge at Change for Somerset.
