Local problem in Township of Washington



Whether it is ‘Draining the swamp’ or fighting the ‘deep state personalities’ the current President as well as those of past decades deal with un-elected persons in positions with accesses from which they attempt and do control and subvert the elected. These are the operatives that feed nuisance news to the national press.


In the Township of Washington, of Gloucester County, NJ we have seen what many believe to be the control by the un-elected. The resolution by Town Council to limit open public speakers to five minutes can sometimes be challenging, but is understandable otherwise there would be meeting filibusters until midnight. What seems to be thoroughly distasteful is hold Council’s response until all speakers have been heard. The origin of this practice, which did not exist in previous years, is felt to be the idea of the un-elected Township’s Council who introduced himself as the meetings parliamentarian. Writing for many Township residents the practice of pigeon holing question responses is not responsive nor conversation concerning the point or subject being made by speaking concerned citizens. After waiting through a number of questioners or speakers an earlier speaker can find themselves mentally debating the response and questioning their need to re-introduce the original subject or proclaim the topic was not properly, or possibly not addressed to the speaker’s intent.  That applies to Federal State County and Local. PLease make you voices heard!

We need the loud voices from meeting attendance to the Voting Booths.
