To the Editor:
On Dec. 7 The SandPaper ran a story on thePinelands Regional Board of Education’sdistrict referendum that will take place on Tuesday, Jan. 24. This consisted ofthree referendums that went down to defeatin the Nov. 8 election. I have a few questions about this. The first is”why”?
I do not remember a 20-inch snowfall that preventedvoters from going to the polls or a county-wide power failure that stopped the voting machines from working. The electorate spoke on Nov. 8 and defeated the proposals.
