PARSIPPANY — Republican Freeholder candidates Lou Valori, Roman Hirniak and Peter King, the Morris County United team, called on Team Mastrangelo to stop the nonsense with campaign signs.
Nearly every election cycle in New Jersey politics, a campaign is caught tampering with another campaign’s signs. Unfortunately, it’s no different in Morris County this year as yesterday Lou Valori observed and photographed Tom Mastrangelo practicing the art of “boxing in” Morris County United’s signs.
“Typically, I don’t raise the issue of another campaign tampering with signs, but considering last week Lou Valori and Peter King, after observing an individual near our signs, went and retrieved stolen signs at Team Mastrangelo headquarters, it is an issue.” Morris County United campaign manager Steve Kush explained, “At that time, they asked Doug Cabana to stop stealing and boxing in our signs.”
“Obviously, the message wasn’t heard because yesterday afternoon Lou Valori observed and photographed Tom Mastrangelo boxing in our signs on Route 10 West in Parsippany,” Kush remarked. “This is getting ridiculous and I have to wonder if it’s just another attempt at intimidation by Mastrangelo.”
“Push polls, filming our supporters going into a fundraiser and tampering with signs. It’s all a sign of a losing campaign that can’t stand on the issues.” Kush said, “It’s obvious Team Mastrangelo is desperate and resorting to every dirty trick they can to hold onto power.”
