    1. I wouldn't be so worried if I were you.
      In the 2020 election, they caught a bunch of republicans cheating, and they were charged for it. Meanwhile, the republicans lost the elections anyway, after their cheating. So it seems that cheating doesn't really help anyone either way.

  4. Chris Smith voted for the Biden infrastructure bill and did not get a penny for route 9 expansion.
    He did nothing to help the local traffic while giving 3 million for the Yeshiva project at Georgian Court.

    1. Inaccurate. NJDOT's Route 9 improvements project, which will cost at least $48 million, is fully federally funded.

    2. That has nothing to do with Chris Smith. The infrastructure bill did not send a penny to lakewood or to fix rt 9

  7. The fact that Rt 9 cost 48 million to fix a few intersections, with a band-aid shows how bad the state/feds are getting ripped off.
    A private contractor can fix that for 3 million.
    The feds should spend a few hundred million and make 2 lanes each way.

  8. I sincerely hope Twitter goes bankrupt after Musk's wild moves.

    That platform is the worst the Internet has to offer, the cause of much of the low-level discourse around every topic nowadays. Leave it to the trumps of the world, and allow those who were blessed with even a little Sechel to discuss things without a 280 character limit.
