Reply to comment by No-Independence194 in What's controversial about a Governor Fulop? by The_Idealist_Realist

I’m all for coalitions but I’m also tired of the Hudson county machine. It’s just frustrating to see how a lot of quality candidates get stonewalled by the old guard unless you kiss the ring.

Agree that the machine is garbage. Until we focus the same level of scrutiny on our County government, we will be stuck with anointing instead of electing. Abolish the line.

Well said. Interested to see how things move after his tenure. Also need to work on getting the local constituency involved more. It’s sad how low of a turnout we see.
