Close but no cigar for would-be independent District 4 candidate Rosemary Rillo.

She needed 226 verified signatures. She turned in a mere 255. It is fairly common knowledge among political sophisticates that you  should never stop collecting signatures until you have a number equal to at least 150% of what you need.

Per Judge Martin Gillette at 0907 HRS today, the official count of verified signatures was only 213 - 13 short of the required minimum. Close, but no cigar - or candidacy.

So, the winner of Tuesday's election or the possible runoff WILL be the next Camden County Commissioner for District 4.

  1. She should request a ACTUAL count by someone other than Judge/Supervisor of Elections Martin Gillette. Both he and Weaver are member of the infamous KOW Klub.

Please keep it clean and reasonably civil. "Public figures" are fair game, consistent with the "actual malice" exception. I suggest you Google both terms before you go off half-cocked.
