Caruso for legislator
The race for county legislator in the Highlands/Woodbury 14th County District is not a school board election! Ralph Caruso is the Republican candidate for legislator and Roxanne Donnery is the Democratic candidate. Both are very well qualified, but Caruso doesn't live in the Town of Highlands … SO WHAT!
The county executive, Ed Diana, is a Republican and will be re-elected. The County Legislature will remain a Republican majority, and Sen. Larkin (Caruso is his assistant) is one of the most powerful Republican senators of the state Senate, also a Republican majority. We need the best representation possible from a government official with power in political majorities.
A Democratic legislator, as is our school board member, in the legislative minority can claim very few initiatives and perks of their own. In other words, she can only get for our town what the Republican majority will allow her.
Right or wrong, that's the way it is in county, state and federal government.
Let's put our legislator in the majority. Elect a qualified and proven leader, Ralph Caruso, to represent us in the County Legislature.
