Washington Twp GOP: Democrats Running as Republicans in Upcoming Primary

press release Washington Township GOP
WASHINGTON TOWNSHIP, GLOUCESTER COUNTY, NJ — Washington Township needs to wake up, and remember! Police Corporal Tim Attanasi, one of three recently converted Democrats running in the June 5 Republican primary here, as per the Democrat political playbook is already playing fast and loose with rules and regulations.
Our police department has a regulation (Section 5:12.9 Class 2 offense) prohibiting officers from running for Mayor or council. Relying on information from a former democrat solicitor, Corporal Attanasi, as democrats are prone to do, has arbitrarily decided that this regulation simply doesn’t apply to him.
His arrogance is astonishing. He is not a true Republican when he decides to run in a Republican primary and completely ignored a regulation that makes good government sense...his actions demonstrate self serving decision making at best.
If he is flouting regulations now, what would it mean for Washington Township if he were to win? Our community is still recovering from the last Democrat turned Republican who didn’t follow laws and regulations. Jerry Luongo went to prison and damaged the Republican Party not just in Washington Township, but all of Gloucester County.
His two running mates, Sal LoPresti and Mike Gilletti are also Democrats who earlier this year (Jan 2012) changed their voter registration to Republican for the sole purpose of running in this primary. Yes, all three of them have voted for Obama or Clinton, and Jon Corzine. Whose values are they going to represent?
The 3 M’s, Daniel Morley, Kevin Murphy, and Tahir Mella are Republicans with lengthy records of serving our community. They are Republicans we can be proud of, and will govern us with integrity.
