Village Council – Election 2018 – Nominating Petitions & Campaign Donations
that we would like to repeat the experience. Much work remains to ensure that our community remains a safe,
healthy, pleasant place to live, raise a family, and retire. You can help.To secure a place on the May 8 ballot, each potential candidate (whether new or incumbent) must submit
hundreds of nominating petitions signed by Village residents who are registered voters. The forms can be
photocopied, but the signatures must be originals, in ink.To allow us the continued honor of representing your interests, please print out, sign, and return the
attached petitions for Mike and me. Signing these (or just one, if you prefer) would not represent a
commitment to voting for us, although we obviously hope you will.Each member of a couple or family should sign a separate form for each candidate. Do not sign together.
Be sure to write your street address where indicated near the top.
How to return completed form(s) for both or either of us:o MAIL to Susan Knudsen, 120 Circle Avenue, Ridgewood, NJ 07450; oro DROP OFF in person (black box on front porch, same address); or
o ARRANGE FOR PICKUP from your home by texting or calling me at 201-394-0666. Include your name and street address.
To help even more, please forward this message to friends and neighbors and share printouts of both forms.
To make sure yours count:
Nominating petitions must be signed precisely as the signer’s name appears in the official voter
registration listings—including middle initials, if any. Village Hall officials (not the Council!)
will carefully compare the format of all petition signatures against the voting rolls.
Any discrepancy will invalidate the petition. Hundreds are tossed in every council election.You can see how you’re listed at this state website: https://www.njelections.org/
Click on “Am I Registered?” Then enter your name and birth month and year. That’s it.
If you are not a registered voter: Please become one, but do not sign these forms until you do.
Because 2 spots on the Council—ours—are open this time, each voter may sign up to 2 nominating
petitions for this election. Any additional petitions would be disallowed.In a few weeks, as campaign season kicks off, we will describe our many accomplishments and reveal
our goals and objectives, including the new Village of Ridgewood Master Plan!
For now, campaign contributions are welcome and appreciated. Kindly make checks payable to:
Knudsen-Sedon for Village Council and send to 120 Circle Avenue, Ridgewood, NJ 07450
or via PayPal https://www.paypal.com/cgi-
** note: A contribution which is more than $300 in the aggregate from one source in an election will be detailed to NJ ELEC campaign filings.
Feel free to call me at 201-394-0666 with comments or questions.
In gratitude,
Mayor Susan Knudsen
