The Assembly: Making your vote count (nearly) double


For the first time in his legislative career, Assemblyman Jerry Green is facing a challenger in the Assembly race.

That challenger is Rick Smiley, 30-year Plainfield resident, former 3-term School Board member and longtime city employee.

Technically, though, Rick is challenging both Jerry Green AND Linda Stender, since Assembly seats are voted on at-large.

Linda, who has annoyed everyone in Plainfield by failing to speak up at all in the whole Muhlenberg Hospital closure saga, must also win in Plainfield to claim her Assembly seat.

And that is where you, dear voter, can actually sort of DOUBLE the value of your vote.

Voting for Rick Smiley ONLY, AND NEITHER FOR JERRY OR LINDA removes one more vote from
THEIR totals.

So, you're tired of Jerry's lack of true leadership? You're annoyed at Linda for checking out on Plainfield when she was needed?

Skip them.

And tell your friends to do likewise.

You'll feel empowered!
