Dave Tingle for Edison Mayor - Best Shot to Break the Dem-party Stranglehold on this Politically-corrupt Town and Bring Government Closer to the People

 Well, been saying it for years - the only possibility we have to break the decades long Dem-party stranglehold on this politically-corrupt town is Wards. You can't have one-party government and expect to have any checks and balances and without any checks and balances, you can be assured that the Dem-party's interests will always override the interests of the citizenry.

The Power has to be Put back in the Hands of the People and the best way to do that is to assure the People control the agenda if you have any hope of change.











Take a look at the last 4 years under the hand-picked Dem-party 'tool' Mayor Sam Joshi. Simply an incompetent and immature embarrassment on the town.

Five demonstrable facts about Local Governance under the Last Four Years of the Joshi Administration:
  1. Residents have been impeded and or blocked from any Public Inquiry and Scrutiny of the Administration both at Council meetings, with the inexcusable antics of his ‘Pocket Council' and by blocking Official Council Communications from being entered into the record as well as adding a Gatekeeper to impede or delay OPRA Requests.
  2. The People of Edison had to Sit by and Watch their Good Town being Turned into a National Embarrassment.
  3. An inept and embarrassing Mayoral performance which arguably lacks maturity, experience, honesty, integrity, principles, credibility, truthfulness, political acumen and transparency.
  4. Turned the town into a massive amount of Ridiculous & Wasteful Spending, debt, warehouse expansion, and uncontrolled approvals of undersized lots and oversized houses, impossible truck traffic, adding to the school overcrowding and without properly addressing major infrastructure problems - and he did all this and Still Raised the Muni taxes by Some 7.4%, more than Doubled the Township Debt Yet only Raised the Ratables by a Ridiculously Low 2.6%.
  5. Clearly, he has no idea what he is doing but, to his credit, he is very good at it.


Here's Dave Tingle's view on Wards and unlike Joshi who supported Wards when he first ran for Mayor only to withdraw after elected - Tingle will go for it. 


'Right now, Edison elects all council members “at-large.” In theory, that means they represent the entire township. But in practice, it leaves neighborhoods without a true advocate. No single council member is directly accountable for your community’s unique concerns, and residents are often left wondering: Who’s really responsible for fixing our local issues?


I believe it’s time for a change. That’s why I will put the ward system on the ballot & let residents decide whether council members should be elected by neighborhood.

Here’s what that means for you:

    •    Dedicated representation: Each part of Edison would have its own council member who lives in the community they serve.

    •    Direct accountability: If a problem goes ignored, you’ll know exactly who to call — and who to hold accountable at election time.

    •    Every neighborhood has a voice: From road repairs and traffic safety to flooding, zoning, and quality-of-life concerns, no area will be left behind.

Most importantly, the ward system brings government closer to the people. Instead of a name on a ballot, your representative would be a neighbor who shops in the same stores, attends the same schools and houses of worship, and shares the same daily experiences.


This November, let’s bring balance, fairness, and true accountability to Edison.


Vote by Mail ballots are out now — make sure your voice is heard early. Vote Column B & E.


Together, we can build a council that finally works for every neighborhood in Edison.


Sincerely,

Dave Tingle'


Here's a video I saw online:



Anyhoo, because I believe Wards is the only way to save Edison and believe Tingle will go for it, I happily voted for him already and hope you do the same. You'll regret it otherwise if you continue down this road.

ETEA's Candidates Night - September 29, 2025

 Well, they had the Candidates Night last night for those interested in filling the 3 spots up on November 4th. 

Do yourselves and every one of the other stakeholders a favor and stay away from Jerry 'ReferenDumb' Shi, aka Mr. Shi-shed, Mr. Pac-Man, Mr. WhatsApp's Edison First Team of S. Peng, V. Patel and R. Azzarello. They'll never solve the Overcrowding yet will piss away a whole lot of money with their piecemeal projects and the Ridiculous attempt to $pend $9 million for a piece of property that doesn't do anything to solve the Overcrowding.

We Need a New School Not a $9 million Waste of Money.










Here's the Meeting for anyone who missed the livestream last night and pay attention to the responses of Mr. Shi-shed's Shi-bots:




Anyhoo, time to get rid of Mr. Shi-shed's Ridiculous inept and dictatorial leadership and finally get around to properly addressing and solving the Overcrowding by ousting his Shi-bots V. Patel and S. Peng and not let in his Shi-bot Wannabe R. Azzarello.

On Nov.4th, help the Edison School District Move Forward - start by Kicking-out Mr. What'sAPP's 4 P's in a Pod

 Well, it was a mistake letting Jerry 'ReferenDumb' Shi, aka Mr. Shi-Shed, Mr. Pac-Man, Mr. WhatsApp back on the Board of Mythomania, Board of Ed-Dems, Board of Dysfunction, Board of Hoarders, much less let him reimpose his inept and dictatorial leadership on the School Board again.

He's clearly one the biggest reasons why the School Board has Never solved the Overcrowding problem facing the school district with all his useless years on the board and now pissing away all that state aid money with these piecemeal projects that will come back to bite the taxpayers when the money runs out and they'll need to be a Humongous School Bond Referendum.

Wake up and do yourselves and the School District a favor and take the Control out of his hands by Not Voting for his Edison Students First Team of S. Peng, V. Patel and R. Azzarello.










Let's not forget his inept and dictatorial leadership style not only has kept the School District from moving forward but it also affects other races in town. At least for me, the fact that Dave Tingle has embraced Mr. Shi-shed's endorsement for Mayor - makes me have to question Mr. Tingle's judgement. Maybe he thinks Mr. Shi-shed can get him votes by dictating to the voters like he does to the Board.

















Anyhoo, there's two things certain in the politically corrupt town - the town has been taken over by the County with it's Dem-party stranglehold and there's no possibility of that changing until we switch to Wards and We Need a New School and Not pissing away another $9 million.

Wow, if Dave 'Shi is for Me' Tingle is Honored with this Endorsement, then you really have to question his judgement

 Well, if politics makes for strange bedfellows, then this is a hoot. Guess he's made a decision and thinks Shi can get him some votes. Bad decision.

One thing for sure, that kind of judgement just shows me that he is unaware of Jerry 'ReferenDumb' Shi, aka Mr. Shi-shed, Mr. Pac-Man years of dismal and inept dictatorial performance and leadership on the Edison Board of Mythomania, Board of Ed Dems, Board of Hoarders, Board of Dysfunction and Board of Muck & Mire that keeps the School District from moving forward and solving the long outstanding overcrowding problem.

So, if he thinks this helps him get votes, then go for it - but he'll never get the support or vote of those who know better.

That's a Shame too, he should have known better - you can't claim to be above the politics in town then use it to try and get votes.



Anyhoo, go ahead and Mingle with Tingle, his poor judgment leaves me out of his selection for Mayor.

The Edison 2025 Final/Preliminary 2026 Property tax bills are finally out

 Well, the Total property tax rate that they show is 5.951, which is down .2-cents from last year's 5.953. That .2-cent reduction is made up of a 2.3-cent increase in the Muni-side taxes, .2-cent increase in the County taxes offset by a 2.7-cent decrease in the School tax.

And don't be fooled by the political minutia - Joshi never had a Muni-tax reduction in any of his 4 years - just a cumulative 10.4-cent or 7.5% increase in the Muni-tax rate.











And here's where the increase in the Property tax rate of 4.8-cents came from over the last 4 years. Muni-side taxes up 13.2-cents, County taxes up .5-cents offset by a 8.9-cent decrease in the School tax.











And here's the last 12 years history of the Edison Property tax so you know the truth and who to thank.










Anyhoo, nothing going to change in this politically corrupt town until you take away the Dem-party stranglehold. The only thing that will change other wise is the names.

Edison 3rd Qtr Property tax bills going out late - Grace Period for payments without interest Extended to September 1, 2025

 Well, not surprising but looks like the 3rd Qtr Edison Property Tax Bills won't be printed and mailed in full until August 8, 2025. The 3rd Qtr Property Tax bills are due on August 1, 2025. The grace period is therefore extended to September 1, 2025 which will give the residents at least 25 days for payment without interest.











If the total Edison Property tax for 2025 remains at 5.959, then just take the 5.959 and divide it by 4 an and multiply that by your home's assessed value divided by 100 - and that will be your 3rd Qtr tax. For example, if you live in that imaginary home assessed qt $183,400 - just take the 5.959 divided by 4 and multiply the number by $183,400/100 and you'll get $2,732.20. If you don't live in that imaginary home assessed at $183,400, then just substitute your home's assessed value.















Anyhoo, it is what it is in this politically corrupt town.
