Politicians always ruin this event.
Great opportunity for Mayor Vagianus to wear his cool scarf.
Oh God him and KK. Fashion is not their strong point yet they get in every picture. Gross
It’s amazing how hated the mayor and his cronies are.
How did these incompetent dolts get in?
Ah that’s right…Ridgewood voters don’t vote but the underlying power base does.
Rich and incredibly stupid
