Republican sweep in Flemington!

From Flemington's mayor to the common council, all republican candidates took control or won their respective bids this past elections. Even though registered voter turnout was only 48% of registered voters in the Hunterdon County area (expected low turnout in mid term elections) the consequences of what happened this past November 2nd elections are already being felt. There is an expected property tax increase proposed and will likely pass despite the promises the so called taxed too much party claimed to keep low. Now the residents that voted for the change will have to put up with the republican parties real plan to raise taxes, lower social programs and create havoc on all levels of government starting with locally. The voters that stayed silent (52%) this past elections will have to wait until next elections to put things right thats if they really want it at all. It seems that the the deceptive practices of the republican rich man's party representing really the socially elite 2% of us and the large uncontrolled investment in ad campaign has worked to convince many of us in thinking they are on our side. So next time you see your tax bill or other rate increases, give yourself a good pat on the back for making this possible and hope they do not make too much damages to your wallets before we are all able to fix this mess next elections, just saying.
