Resident Hopes for Incumbent Sweep in May Election

To the editor:

I strongly support all 4 incumbents for their reelection to the Teaneck Council. I hope the recent lawsuit ploy filed by Jason Castle and Alan Sohn wakes up all my neighbors in every corner of our great town and I further hope that our incumbents have a clean sweep in the May 2014 election.

Mr. Sohn and Mr. Castle are known to whine about all the costs taxpayers must bear. Yet, perhaps they do not understand this is one large legal bill as a taxpayer I am angry to have to cover and I will remember for a long time this pre-election tactic chosen by them.

Furthermore, by just examining who was listed in said lawsuit individually, the lawsuit is an effort to divide our township into sub-communities. Candidates have multiple ways to get their messages out - debates, ads, walk the business districts, editorials and letters to local papers, etc., but this lawsuit is a new low and further depletes municipal resources needlessly.

The incumbents have focused on all of Teaneck’s residents in a cooperative, non-confrontational manner and strongly support programs that benefit our most important residents – our youth.

Very upset with such divisive actions and I will gladly vote for all four incumbents and I publicly urge all of Teaneck’s residents who wish to keep Teaneck as a warm, friendly, diverse, but close knit community, to similarly do so.
