The Ridgewood Blog Brings a Free Market Laissez-faire Point of View to Local, New Jersey State and National Issues.

Ridgewood NJ, from the “Keep Our Vote” site ,voting on the school budget vote is an insurance policy against Ridgewood taxpayers being unnecessarily overcharged.
Sadly, the desperate “One Village One Vote” faction has now resorted to defaming residents who disagree with their position by facilitating the spread of blatant lies about dissenters on the heavily censored Ridgewood Moms and Dads Facebook page (a page administered by Ms. Siobhan Crann Winograd, a “One Village One Vote” petitioner).
For the record, I did NOT seek to “overturn” May’s municipal election results as a Mr. Charles Kime suggests in a recent post made on Moms and Dads, and NO e-mail addresses of any Ridgewood voters were included in the response to my OPRA for information about the validity of mailed in ballots associated with that election.
I challenge Mr. Kime to produce any evidence of intent on my part to “overturn” May’s municipal election results, or that I was responsible for supplying the names and e-mail addresses of Ridgewood voters to the “Keep Our Vote” organization.
Lastly, please vote NO on the municipal question via the mail in ballot you recently received.
Thank you.

“There is nothing happening at the BOE that is truly transparent because Board members do not see themselves as representatives of the people but as an agent (s)of the superintendent. Committee meeting reports are rarely heard . For years minutes were not kept. Until recently you never even heard real discussions. The last public comment session takes place before the last agenda items which often include important items relevant to those attending and those watching from home. Mr. Dani attends meetings and asks politely for information that should be readily available to the public but doesn’t receive it. This happens to others as well. He pursued his request and we found out that there is no policy that precludes Bof E members from conducting business on private email accounts. This must be corrected. Also, without the questions regarding the bond referendum , we would be looking at an additional vote this year on a 95 million dollar bond on top of the 115 million dollar budget vote.”
