To the Editor:
My name is Tom Tallon, and I am launching a write-in campaign to be re-elected to the Ship Bottom Borough Council. Although I lost the Republican primary to an unendorsed candidate by just 10 votes, I believe Ship Bottom deserves better.
I made the decision to run as a write-in candidate because of my opponent’s troubling voting record and conduct during his time on both the LBI school board and the Ship Bottom Land Use Board.
