FREEHOLD, NJ – The Monmouth County Board of Chosen Freeholders unanimously passed the resolution opposing the exclusive use of mail-in ballots for this November’s General Election, and all future elections, at the livestreamed regular public meeting held on Thursday, July 23.
“My fellow Freeholders and I are gravely concerned as the exclusive mail-in ballot ‘experiment’ has been difficult at best and should not be conducted when selecting individuals to lead Boards of Educations, political parties and bodies of government,” said Freeholder Director Thomas A. Arnone. “As we have seen repeatedly in the past, using mail-in ballots increases the risk of voter fraud and causes delays in counting ballots.”

Always a proud supporter and great lover of his hometown, as well as a great historian in his own right, former Mayor Dick Stryker is a great source of information with date, materials and collectibles about the town in the 19th century before it was separated from Middletown. One story, which was first published in the early part of the 20th century credits Ezra R. Osborne and others like him with beginning the town of Atlantic Highlands.
Ezra worked for Thomas H. Leonard, the man most often credited with conceiving the idea of the town and helping it every step of the way in its early progress. His “From Indian Trail to Electric Rail“ classic is often used for history, some not so inaccurate, but all fascinating. The book gives you an idea of how far reaching Mr. Leonard was in this thinking.
