EDITOR:

I have been following this year’s Bernardsville Borough Council election with much interest. In your editorial last week you stated, “(Denis) Dooley and (Charlotte) Foster emphasize the need to bring fresh ideas to the table.”

I have read their ads. What are these fresh ideas? There is no mention of them. They say they will ask the “tough” questions. What are these questions? Again, there is no mention of them.

One of their slogans is “vote for change.” In none of their communications with the residents of Bernardsville have they made any definitive statements. Platitudes sound good but Bernardsville residents need substance and action.

They only change they will bring will be a unilateral council and more of the same, turning a deaf ear to the needs of residents. I want no more of the same controlling group of people continuously deciding who can best represent the citizens of Bernardsville.

I support Joe Rossi and John McCrossan. I’m voting “people affiliation’’ not “Party affiliation.” I ask everyone to support the Bernardsville Independent Leadership ticket on Nov. 8.
