HOW DO YOU SPELL HYPOCRISY?
D-A-N P-R-O-N-T-I
GOP Mayor promotes two-party government in Kearny while engineering only Republicans in North Arlington.
How about ridding North Arlington of his one-party ways?
When you win, we guess you can talk from both sides of your proverbial mouth.
Dan Pronti spent the last year telling residents that you must have only Republicans running North Arlington and that the presence of Democrats would be a blow to democracy. The thought of just two individuals on the Mayor and Council that didn’t owe their seats to him would be somehow undemocratic.
The thought of credible and legitimate two-party government was effectively squashed on November 5th as the local GOP outspent the Democrats at least 3-1 to retain that all-Republican Mayor & Council.
Despite running an issue-oriented campaign focused on the GOP Municipal Tax hike and the complete overdevelopment and urbanization of Ridge Road, the Pronti incumbents were easy winners.
But now Pronti is sticking his nose again in Kearny politics, calling for two-party government, the kind of political make-up he vehemently opposes here in North Arlington!
It’s “do as I say, and not as I do” for North Arlington as Mr. Pronti preaches a different tune as political reformer in Kearny and embedded political boss in NA!
Yes, Elections do have consequences.
