What's the Biggest Issue as Election Day Nears?

Election Day is a few weeks away here in Montville – who will you be voting for?

What do you think the election will bring? New faces or the same party in power?

For township council, there are four candidates running for two committee seats with 3-year terms.

• Richard D. Conklin (R)
• Scott Gallopo (R) (incumbent)
• Daniel Grant (D)
• Truscha Quatrone (D)

For the school board, there are four candidates running for three seats with 3-year terms.

• Diane M. Bordonaro
• John Morella (incumbent)
• Carmela Novi (incumbent)
• Michael F. O’Brien

For the unexpired 2-year term available on the board, David Modrak is running unchallenged.

Our new open blog, The Soapbox-Montville Government, hopes to be the place where locals can debate these kinds of issues in town.
