What does this mean?
It means that some Council member and and candidates have spent big money to win a small town election? Whats in it for them?
Remember, she is in bed with all the high density supporters in town, too. https://theridgewoodblog.net/harwin-wrong-on-the-issues/#comment-2045813
The money she spent, her backers, her position on adding more people to our town and our schools all concern me. But, hey, everyone is entitled to their position. The part that scares me, the part that despairs me, is the blatant hatred that shows through her smiling (and obviously fake) persona. The ads she ran and the smears she tolerated from her supporters are disgusting.
Hate filled Harwiin has no place in our town.
Just remember $18,286 is not chump change.
It is insane for a council election to cost this much. No wonder it takes billions to become president.
