The Revolution that Started in Washington (Township, NJ)

For the the first time ever, in NJ, municipal citizens have overridden a raise, given to itself, by a newly elected administration, not even 28 days in office.  Note that the ordinance issuing this raise was passed illegally before a Township budget was passed, as required by local law.  Note also that the same administration hired an unproven expert from another county to serve as a development administrator, giving him a car (!) to pay for his travel.

Opposition to this disgusting act of self-aggrandization is entirely non-partisan.  Not a single Democrat, Independent, or Republic asked to sign the petition refused to do so. Prior Democrat and Republican mayors signed the petition.

Next step, Washington itself?
