MAIL-IN BALLOTS CURRENTLY DISTRIBUTED
We're all probably sick of hearing the names Trump, Harris, Vance, and Walz — but some may not know the candidates closer to home.
I received my mail-in ballot on Thursday, Sept. 19, 2024, and some of the names I knew, some I did not. So, here is a helpful guide to who is running in our local elections in 2024.
FULL DISCLOSURE: The Woodstown Crier publication, and the Town Crier, are nonpartisan, apolitical entities in the Woodstown-Pilesgrove community. The Town Crier does not appear at political events or fundraisers, and the Woodstown Crier makes no political endorsements. Equal measure is given to all candidates and elected officials who wish to have their voice in the Woodstown Crier Column. Respectful and dignified civic discourse is encouraged and will never be used as a tool of division in the Woodstown Crier unlike many news publications and blogs today.
