October 23rd, 2008, Subject: Time for change
I believe the voters in Monmouth County
should take special notice of their Freeholder candidates this year. On
the Democratic ticket is Amy Mallet, a local businesswoman, and Glenn
Mason, a recently retired detective with 25 years of service with the
Hazlet Police Department.
The Board of Chosen Freeholders has been
controlled by the Republican majority for 20 or more years. During
that time, county workers have been indicted, convicted and some are
presently serving time in prison for their illegal activities.
Your taxes have risen more than 75 percent during their tenure and the
current budget is just under half a billion dollars.
It's time for a change; Glenn Mason brings 25 years
of experience to keep a watchful eye on what's going on in the county
government. Glenn also brings more than eight years of experience on
the Hazlet Board of Education another indication of his
involvement in government and community.
If you've had enough with the illegal and
corrupt behavior in our county government, cast your vote Nov. 4
for Glenn Mason, retired police officer, and Amy Mallet who will
both serve as watchful eyes.

Retired Police Officers Association
