Republicans to Lose Control of Freeholder Board After Four Decades; Winning Democrat Who Halted Campaign Says He’ll Step Down ASAP

By Mark Hatoff and Bill Bonvie Team Coverage

MOUNT HOLLY—A historic shift in political winds Tuesday is about to bring the Republican’s 43-year control of the Burlington County Board of Chosen Freeholders to an end.

Voters on Nov. 6 chose Felicia Hopson and George Youngkin over incumbent Republican Freeholder Director Kate Gibbs and Republican Deputy Director Linda Hughes.

Hopson tallied 98,759 votes and Youngkin got 90,486, while Gibbs garnered 81,568 and Hughes tallied 81,266.

Gibbs, Hughes and Freeholder Latham

Tiver have been serving as the only Republicans of the five-member board since Democrats Tom Pullion and Balvir Singh pulled off an upset win in last year’s General Election.

The loss of Gibbs and Hughes will now give Democrats a 4-1 majority on the board beginning in early January, marking the first time since 1975 that the board will no longer be controlled by the GOP. But the victory for Democrats was not without a significant hitch.

Youngkin won his seat on the freeholder board despite suspending his campaign in September amid allegations in an area newspaper that he abused his ex-wife and harassed another woman more than a

decade ago, and receiving considerable flak from both major political parties.

He i n it ially responded to h is unanticipated win by announcing on Wednesday morning that with “humility and gratitude” and the support of his family, he had decided to accept the popular mandate and serve on the board.

But later in the day, Youngkin reversed course through a joint statement with Burlington County Democratic Chairman Joe Andl. Youngkin, in the joint statement, said that he had reconsidered the decision to serve which was made “in a moment of revelry.”

Youngkin added that he intends to resign the day after being sworn in “out See LEFT/ Page 12

MOUNT HOLLY—The results of the 3rd District Congressional race—one that was considered a toss-up prior to Election Day— remained shrouded in uncertainty as of deadline time Thursday, despite one candidate declaring himself the winner.

Two-term Republican Congressman Tom MacArthur had held a slim lead over Andy Kim, his Democratic challenger, in the hours after the polls closed Tuesday, but Kim forged ahead on Wednesday night and claimed victory after more than 25,000 mail-in-ballots were counted in Burlington County.

“We did it!” Kim wrote on his Facebook campaign page Wednesday night. “Thank you everyone in NJ03. It will be an honor to represent our district, a district where I went to kindergarten and am now raising my two boys. I’m humbled. Now is the time for a new generation of leaders to unite our nation and lead with integrity, honor and civility.”

As of Thursday night, Kim, a Marlton native whose parents immigrated here from South Korea, had received 150,311 votes, while MacArthur’s tally was 146,887 votes.

“We just declared victory,” said Zack Carroll, campaign manager for Kim at an impromptu Wednesday night victory celebration in Mount Laurel. “We knew last night that there were 27,000 mail-in-ballots and they were all counted today, providing for the 2,800-vote lead.

“That was just in Burlington and the (majority) of mail-in-ballots were already counted in Ocean County…we know as the days move forward, we are going to add to that lead because where those remaining votes are located there is just no way he can surpass the lead we have right now.”

While Kim was more than 3,000 votes ahead in the count, as of press time, there was still no official concession from MacArthur and local election officials did not officially declare a verdict. Additionally, the Associated Press had still not declared a winner in the race as of Thursday night.

Much was riding on provisional ballots that have reportedly numbered in the thousands in both counties. This was the result of a new See VICTORY/ Page 22

Democrats Win Control of 2nd District After 23 Years of Republican Control

By Douglas D. Melegari Staff Writer

NEW GRETNA—New Jersey’s Second Congressional District has turned blue after 23 years of Republican control.

The district, which includes southern portions of Ocean County and Bass River and Washington townships in Burlington County, propelled Democrat Jeff Van Drew to victory Tuesday night.

Van Drew, who garnered 125,911 votes as of press time, will replace retiring Rep. Frank LoBiondo, a senior Republican on the Armed Services Committee.

“The first piece I want to do is a resolution that would mandate that our Congress people behave like normal human beings,” said Van Drew, New Jersey’s 1st Legislative District senator since 2008. “We have a job to do in leadership, and leadership is something that we are involved in all different ways.

Leadership means that you work together… and you have to be bipartisan.”

LoBiondo, first elected to the Second Congressional District in 1994, announced last November that he would be not be seeking re-election this year.

Seth Grossman, Van Drew’s Republican challenger, hoped to succeed LoBiondo by embracing President Donald J. Tr ump’s agenda, but fell short with 110,596 votes.

“Together we went the distance,” Grossman

said. “We proved widespread support for our Make America Great Again/conservative message.”

Grossman, after conceding the race, lashed out at National Republican Campaign Com mittee ( NRCC) leadership for not backing GOP candidates who embraced Trump’s agenda.

“We proved how wrong Rep. Steve Stivers and his NRCC were to sabotage this winnable race,” he said. “Folks now tell me NRCC spent fortunes on never-Trump losers and cut off other good conservatives in other states. If true, Stiver and NRCC are why Democrats will control the House of Representatives.”

Van Drew, during his victory speech, called Washington D.C. “dysfunctional.”

He listed taking care of people with preexisting conditions, reforming a “badly broken immigration system” and “stopping oil drilling off our coast” as his top priorities.

“We are Americans,” he said. “Before we are anything else, we are Americans. As Americans, we have to work together not in a mean-spirited way—not to destroy each other, not to hurt each other, not to try to break each other—but to actually get things done for the Americans who live in this country, who live in New Jersey and who live in South Jersey.”

Van Drew also vowed to protect Medicare and Social Security.

Lifelong Resident Samuel Moore III Wins Committee Seat in Tabernacle; Mayor Barton Wins Re-election

By Mark Hatoff

For the Pine Barrens Tribune

TABERNACLE—Despite an eleventhhour write-in campaign challenge from former Tabernacle Emergency Management Coordinator Col. William “Corky” Lowe, the Nov. 6 election for a pair of Tabernacle Township Committee seats went pretty much as expected.

Republican Samuel R. Moore III, a first-time candidate for office, earned 2,375 votes and Republican Mayor Joseph W. Barton had 2,018 votes to win the two open seats on the committee for three-year terms.

Lowe did, however, manage to tally at least 378 of 427 write-in votes.

Although Moore will be a newcomer to the committee, the blueberry/cranberry farmer is no stranger to Tabernacle.

Moore, who will be turning 45 years old on Nov. 12, has been a township resident his entire life, and his family’s history in the area dates back to 1829, before there even was a township called Tabernacle.

“I’m six generations in this community and my son is generation seven,” said Moore on Tuesday evening. “I know a lot about Tabernacle.

It is my home and I want to protect it.”

Moore, a retired section warden for the New Jersey Forest Fire Service, said he decided to run for a committee seat because he wanted to become even more active in local affairs than he already was.

“Since I have retired, I have liked getting involved in the community by working as a first responder and with other groups, and I wanted to expand my horizons,” he said. “When (Committeeman Richard) Franzen decided not to run again and I knew there was going to be an open seat, I thought that I could bring

a lot of things to the table. Giving back to the community is where it is at.”

Lowe, the day after the election, said that losing in his informal bid for a committee seat was not a big disappointment.

He unofficially announced his candidacy via a Facebook post that appeared a couple of days before an Oct. 22 committee meeting that saw an ordinance repeal proposal for designating the Tabernacle Rescue Squad (TRS) as the sole emergency medical-service provider in Tabernacle Township get tabled.

In his post, Lowe encouraged residents to write in his or any other name as a vote, rather than Barton’s.

“The number of votes that I got was not too bad and I think that it accomplished what I wanted to do, which was to get people involved,” said Lowe, who retired April 1 after serving as the town’s emergency management coordinator for nearly 13 years. “But, I don’t intend to run officially again in the future. I am 72 years old and this was a one-shot deal.”

When asked his opinion about the winning candidates, Lowe did not hold back from sharing.

“Sam Moore is a good guy,” he said. “Joe Barton is also a good guy, but he sometimes needs to be reminded that there are people out there who care a lot. If residents stay informed and involved, I think we will see some results (in town) that will be good in the future.”

Moore, who will take his committee seat with Barton on Jan. 1, 2019, said he cannot wait to get started.

“I am going to give the community and the residents my best,” he said. “I am going to put my best foot forward for the good of the residents and taxpayers. I think the world of this township.”

Barton declined to comment for this story.

Democrats Pull Off Historic Upset in Pemberton Borough

By Douglas D. Melegari Staff Writer

PEMBERTON BOROUGH—Voters of Pemberton Borough, in a historic upset, elected two Democrats to Pemberton Borough Council for the first time in more than three decades Tuesday.

“The last time we had Democrats elected to borough council was in the 1970s,” said Mayor Harold Griffin. “Lynn Conover was the last Democrat and we let him run unopposed during his tenure since Republicans always ran unopposed.”

Griffin said the election of Steven Fenster, with 293 votes, and Clifford Rutherford, with 265 votes, was a shock to him, but even more shocking was the turnout of nearly 500 borough residents—equivalent to a presidential election year, which 2018 is not.

“Only in the last four or five years has there been a Democrat on the ballot,” said Griffin, who noted that Conover’s term expired 17 years ago in 2001.

Fenster and Rutherford ousted 33-year Councilman Robin Mosher, who received only 233 votes, and eight-year Councilwoman Norma Ward who garnered only 227 votes.

“It is not really political in Pemberton Borough, so I think I got caught up in a Democratic sweep that has been taking place across the county and nation and the anti-Trump sweep,” said Mosher, who has spent 42 years as an elected Pemberton Borough official, serving the first nine of those years on school board. “I am going to kind of miss it, as I was 22 years old when I was first elected. It will be tough.”

Mosher’s loss also means council will need to choose a new president in 2019, as he has served as its president for “at least the last three years.”

Griffin, who is known to be an outspoken Republican at times, praised the community

Saturday, November 10, 2018

WWW.PINEBARRENSTRIBUNE.COM

involvement of both Fenster and Rutherford when asked if he will work together with them.

“I put Fenster on the Pemberton Borough Planning Board,” Griffin said. “I always felt he was someone who was interested in our community as he comes to all of the meetings.”

Griffin added that Rutherford, a retired electrician, worked with him to help improve the stability of electrical lamp lighting in the borough.

“We were replacing incandescent light bulbs all the time in the antique lamps,” he said. “He urged me to replace the incandescent light bulbs with LED light bulbs. Since that time, we have had to replace maybe three LED light bulbs.”

Griffin, who has served as the borough’s mayor since 2014, also said he has always had a “good working relationship” with Rutherford, who is the association president of the Hearthstone at Woodfield, an age 55-plus community in Pemberton Borough.

Fenster, a 12-year borough resident, said Wednesday that he wants to reopen the Pemberton Borough Municipal Building to the public on Fridays.

Municipal hall services on Fridays, Fenster said, were discontinued during a “budget crisis” around 2014 and never reinstated.

“One thing that has bothered me is that due to the budget, council has closed the municipal building on Fridays,” Fenster said. “I think we need to open things on Fridays.”

Fenster added that he and others have watched as borough residents pull up to borough hall on Fridays only to find the doors locked.

“It is absolutely an inconvenience,” he said, as he expressed the belief that a few local issues drove voters to the polls. “People come there on Fridays in person and it is kind of crazy that we don’t have a regular work week.”

Pemberton Mayoral Race Hinges on Provisional Ballot Count

By Mark Hatoff and Douglas D. Melegari Team Coverage

PEMBERTON—A number of issues have made for discrepant and uncertain election results in Tuesday’s race for mayor of Pemberton Township, resulting in widespread confusion in the municipality.

A raw vote tally released by Pemberton Township on Tuesday night showed longtime Democratic Mayor David Patriarca with 3,506 votes, leading his Republican opponent Jack Tompkins who got 3,240 votes.

However, unofficial election results issued

by Burlington County Wednesday showed Tompkins with 3,448 votes, holding a slight lead over Patriarca, who was listed as having only 3,409 votes.

Deputy County Clerk Wade Hale said that the discrepancy occurred after two voting machine car t r idges for the tow nship’s voting District 8 were not returned to the county by a poll worker, while the township clerk compiled her results from the voting machines’ tapes.

“We had to get per mission f rom an assignment judge to run the machine tapes,” he said. “It is unusual for two voting machine cartridges in one district to not be returned, but we think an elderly poll worker was unable to pull the cartridges out and just packed up the machine with them inside.”

Ad d it io n a l ly, mu ch wa s r id i ng o n provisional ballots. This was the result of a new law signed by Gov. Phil Murphy in August requiring that such ballots be given to anyone who showed up at the polls, but voted by mail in the 2016 election and failed to opt out of that arrangement in writing.

In addition, due to the new state law, mailin ballots postmarked by 8 p.m. on Election Day could arrive up to 48 hours after the polls closed and still be counted. Therefore, the complete mail-in ballot results were not known until Thursday night.

Hale released new unofficial election results just after 10 p.m. on Thursday, which included the cartridge count and complete

mail-in ballot results, but not provisional ballot results.

The latest county numbers showed that Patriarca’s lead over Tompkins increased markedly.

A worker at the Burlington County Board of Elections Thursday told the Pine Barrens Tribune that she did not know when the provisional ballots would be counted, though a day earlier, officials there said it would take into next week to complete the process.

Prior to the latest unofficial election results release from the county, Patriarca claimed a hard-fought victory in his town’s contentious mayoral election, while Tompkins declined to be interviewed for this story, saying that there were too many variables still in play.

“I can’t see a change in the results at this point,” said Patriarca, who has been Pemberton Township’s mayor for almost 12 straight years. “(Tompkins) would have to get every mail-in ballot, along with a substantial amount of provisionals to take the race. It’s highly unlikely.”

If Patriarca pulls off a victory, he will have won his fourth consecutive election, which would represent the first time someone has won the mayoral seat four times since 1991.

The Pemberton Council races were not nearly as close as the mayoral race, and hence officials from both parties conceded that the Democratic candidates scored a victory.

Pemberton Democratic incumbent Jason Allen, with 4,217 votes, held on to his council seat and Democrat Gaye Burton also earned a place on council with 4,079 votes. They defeated challengers Alan Cantrell, who had 3,268 votes, and Richard Koster who garnered 3,150 votes.

Democrat incumbent Elizabeth McCartney defeated Shannon Shadman 4,300 to 3,163 to fill a two-year unexpired term of former Councilman Ken Cartier.

Car tier, who moved out of the area, resigned on March 11. He served on council from 2007 through 2014. Cartier returned in 2016 to fill a vacant seat left by the death of councilwoman Diane Stinney.

Youngkin Says Decision to Step Aside Was His Alone, Not Due to Pressure

By Bill Bonvie Staff Writer

MEDFOR D —Bu rlington Count y Freeholder-elect George Youngkin says he alone made the decision to step down from the post the day after he is sworn in, and was not pressured to do so in a meeting Wednesday with County Democratic Chairman Joe Andl.

“The decision was mine—nobody could tell me that I couldn’t serve,” he told the Pine Barrens Tribune in an exclusive phone interview on Thursday.

Youngkin, who suspended his campaign last month after decade-old allegations of domestic abuse of his ex-wife and harassment

of a woman friend surfaced, said that even though he had initially announced he intended to serve after learning of his unanticipated win Tuesday night, he thought better of the idea after reviewing his options the following day.

He indicated that his discussion with Andl convinced him it would be in the best interest of party to step down and clear a path for another Democrat to be given the post.

He added that he did not want the focus to be on the accusations regarding his past behavior, which he has acknowledged he is not proud of, but which he has also claimed See ASIDE/ Page 16

Republican Mayoral Reign in Evesham Township to End

Mark Hatoff

For the Pine Barrens Tribune

EVESHAM—The Republican mayoral reign in Evesham Township will be coming to an end in early 2019 as a result of voters having chosen a Democrat to fill the post.

Democrat Jaclyn Veasy, a lifelong Evesham resident, got 10,672 votes in Tuesday’s election to fend off Republican Councilman Steve Zeuli, also a lifelong resident of the township, who had received 9,838 votes.

Veasy, a 10 -year insu rance indust r y veteran and senior claims adjuster at GEICO Insurance in Marlton since 2012, will scuceed longtime Evesham Mayor Randy Brown, who announced on Sept. 11 that he was stepping down at the end of his term this year.

Brown, whose announcement was made well after he won the GOP primary, has been mayor of Evesham since 2007.

Also in Evesham, Democrats Heather Cooper and Patricia Hansen grabbed two open council seats. Voters cast 10,693 ballots for Cooper, while Hansen got 10,679 votes.

Republican opponents Deborah Hackman and Jay Levenson, had 9,577 and 9,312 votes, respectively.

“Going into the day of the election, I was very cautiously optimistic because I knew that we worked very hard for it,” said Veasy, also a longtime volunteer in the township. “What contributed to our winning was the hard work that Heather, Pat and I put in, with lots of time talking to voters and canvassing. We reached over 4,000 households on the ground between us and our volunteers. We made hundreds of phone calls.”

Zeuli, who will be ending his time on council after serving two terms, had few

regrets about losing the election.

“I’m proud of our effort,” he said. “Our people worked their butts off and knocked on every single door. If we had a little more time before Mayor Brown’s decision, we may have been able to tweak our message a little more.

But nobody outworked us.”

Veasy intends for council to have a change in tone once she, Cooper and Hansen take office in January.

“We want to include the community in the decision-making process and open up some transparency about what has been going on in the town,” she said. “I believe that there can be more open communication than what has been going on currently. We can also have more willingness to work with the other entities within the township.”

Veasy mentioned that Hansen’s biggest priority will be outreach to the seniors and veterans, letting everyone know what services are available to them in a more open manner.

She said that Cooper’s top interest will be looking into how shared services can be used to stabilize taxes in Evesham.

Zeuli and Brown, both said in interviews with the Pine Barrens Tribune, that they believe the results of this week’s election reflected what has been going on throughout the country.

“There was a record turnout of voters this year and I am proud of our community for coming out,” Zeuli said. “I’m very proud of the people that voted for me and my running mates. But I don’t know how our message could have been any different.”

Zeuli added that he would continue to be See END/ Page 27

‘Night of Terror’ Makes Halloween In Pemberton Both Safe and Fun

By Nicolas Fernandes Staff Writer

PEMBERTON—The Pemberton Sports Complex was transformed into a “spook complex” on Halloween night, when an estimated 2,000 kids and adults turned out for Pemberton’s annual Night of Terror.

The “Pine Barrens Asylum” gave teens and adults some real chills while smaller children waited in line for the “Not-so-Scary Haunted House.”

Joseph Marrolli, director of the Pemberton Township Recreation Department, commended the staffers of Fear in the Forest, a local familyoperated haunted attraction, for their work on the “asylum” and the township’s Little League team for creating the “really good kid-friendly version.”

Attendees also did their trick or treating at various vendor booths to get their free candy— an alternative to the old-fashioned ritual of kids going door to door—while being entertained by a music video of Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” on a large screen.

The Pemberton Township Recreation Department estimated that 2,000 people

BE A DRIVING FORCE IN OUR REGION! (PART-TIME)

attended the event.

“Eddie Baker, a maintenance worker for Pemberton Township, was handing out candy at his haunted car attraction with his wife Liz. Baker wore a clown mask and his wife was dressed as a witch.

“We do a lot of different things in the town,” Baker said. “We go to a lot of car shows and the Halloween parade. We love it. You have to participate in the community.”

David Borek, of Solstice Counseling which provides quality addiction treatment, had such a good experience as a first-time vendor that he already has plans to return next year.

“It’s been great,” he said. “We’ve been handing out candy and putting out some of our information for those that may want it.

Marrolli explained that the event would not have been such a success if it wasn’t for all of the volunteers involved.

“It was a township effort,” he said. “It wouldn’t have been possible without the help of the police, the fire department, public works and many other volunteers.”

Pair Arrested for Leaving Body of Overdose Victim on Side of Road SOUTHAMPTON—New Jersey State Police have arrested two Camden County residents who are alleged to have dumped the body of a 36-year-old Paulsboro woman on the side of a road in Southampton Township following her death from a drug overdose.

Daniel Waterfield, 53, of Lawnside and Amanda Seth, 35, of Camden, were both charged with desecration of human remains

and evidence tampering.

Waterfield was lodged at Burlington County Jail pending a bail detention hearing. Seth was released pending a court appearance.

The body of Kerri Stetser, was discovered on Halloween night, Oct. 31, at 7:40 p.m. by a passerby on the berm of Purgatory Road near the intersection of Route 70.

Troopers and EMS rendered first aid to the victim upon arriving at the scene, but were unable to resuscitate her.

The victim, who was said to not be carrying any identification, was eventually identified from a fingerprint.

State Police detectives later determined that Stetser had overdosed in Waterfield’s vehicle.

Waterfield then contacted Seth, who is alleged to have aided him in the disposal of the body on the side of the road.

The following day, detectives located Waterfield and Seth in Camden where they were arrested without incident.

Pine Barrens Tribune Provides Much-Needed Service to Readers

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

I enjoyed reading your recent opinion piece concerning the need to protect the rights of a free press.

In the early 1960s, I was the editor of a grassroots community newspaper that circulated in some of the same municipalities currently being covered by your excellent weekly publication, the Pine Barrens Tribune.

The now defunct “Burlington County Times-Advertiser” covered the municipal and board of education meetings in Pemberton Township, Pemberton Borough, Southampton Township, Tabernacle Township and Woodland Township, where “beat” reporters stayed on top of weekly and monthly agendas.

These beat reporters kept readers regularly informed of the decisions being made by the elected officials who governed their towns, and school districts that ultimately decided how their hard-earned tax dollars were being spent.

One of my proudest accomplishments as a journalist came in the late 1960s when an expose my little newspaper published resulted in the ouster of an elected township committeeman who was censoring the release of police reports that were considered to be part of the public record.

Your weekly newspaper provides a much needed and appreciated system of checks and balances, something that the daily newspapers—that swoop in to cover local meetings only when a major issue arises— do not offer their subscribers.

In the 1970s, after a big daily newspaper conglomerate had bought up my weekly newspaper and then closed its doors, I worked for 15 years as a public information officer for several local municipalities and school districts.

Throughout my tenure working in the public sector, I spent a lot of time and energy trying to educate school administrators and elected public officials about the duties and responsibilities of the media and the reporters’ rights to ask questions and get timely answers to their questions. Most understood, but there was always one of two who thought of the media as their “enemy.”

Usually it was because they had something to hide.

I cannot say there was never a time when I felt a reporter or editor was being overzealous or unfair, nor a time when I was a bit embarrassed having to defend an employer’s’ position or decision that I did not personally support.

For the most part my job went smoothly.

I found the media to be respectful,

understanding and appreciative of the fact that there was someone on board who understood they had a job to do, and who was willing to stand up for them when misguided officials wanted to withhold information they had every right to have.

In return, when there was a legitimate reason to hold up on the release of information to protect the public good or an ongoing investigation, the media cooperated.

“Throughout my tenure working in the public sector, I spent a lot of time and energy trying to educate school administrators and elected public officials about the duties and responsibilities of the media and the reporters’ rights to ask questions and get timely answers to their questions. Most understood, but there was always one of two who thought of the media as their ‘enemy.’

Usually it was because they had something to hide.”

I encourage the Pine Barrens Tribune to continue the excellent job it is doing of providing detailed, comprehensive meeting coverage of the school districts and governing bodies in its coverage area. It is your right and duty to demand accountability and answers to your questions. We all need to defend grassroots journalism with the same fervor that we defend our other liberties.

Five Health Benefits of White Sage and How to Use It

W

hite sage is known botanically as Salvia apiana and can be purchased in a bundle. You can also drink

it as a tea.

This plant has impressive medicinal properties and is used in many wellness rituals. I think some people mistakenly assume you can get high on it, but you can’t.

I also want to emphasize this is a medicinal herb for everyone, it is not just for new agers, and its benefits were put on Earth for all to utilize.

Sage is just like every other herbal remedy you have heard of.

You can take herbs as a dietary supplement (think ginger, echinacea or dandelion), you can drink tea from the plant (think chamomile or coffee), or you can apply a herb as a compress (think of calendula).

You can also distill plants and inhale their essential oils (think of lavender or peppermint).

It’s all medicine! I’m just giving you a new way to extract the medicine from a plant, by burning it, and this practice is referred to as smudging.

Here are 5 benefits of white sage: 1.TREATS SINUS INFECTIONS You can inhale the aroma given off a burning white sage bundle for a few minutes, or you can drink it as a tea. It’s the compound called “eucalyptol,” also known as 1,8-cineole, that when inhaled, reduces painful sinus inflammation. It may kill the associated pathogens too! That is pretty amazing considering the side effects of prescribed antibiotics and antihistamines.

2.CALMS A SORE THROAT Sage leaf tea is a proven strategy for alleviating a sore throat, at least according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Plant Guide. Sage tea will reduce mucous secretions of the sinuses, throat, and lungs.

3.RELIEVES MENSTRUAL PAIN White sage tea might provide relief from

w w w. m e d f o r d s m i l e s . c o m

Suzy Cohen AMERICA’S PHARMACIST

menstrual period cramps and possibly some symptoms of menopause like sweating and hot flashes. This benefit occurs because sage contains phytoestrogens, which are plantderived estrogens.

4.PROVIDES CLEANSING ENERGY Sage is kind of like an eraser, in that it will help remove the day’s burdens and ease emotional suffering. It may help with mild anxiety or depression. Smudging is the quickest way because when you inhale, the compounds go straight to your bloodstream and brain. Just as an FYI, the practice of burning herbs (aka smudging) is a non-religious one. You are just burning plant leaves, rather than swallowing the supplement. If you’d like, you can certainly pray while you burn the medicine.

5.CLEANS THE AIR Burning the embers of sage (a.k.a. smudging) in a room is helpful if someone is sick. My tip is designed to clean a room where someone has been coughing or sneezing from pneumonia, or influenza, for example and you desire to clear the air space of their germs so you don’t catch it, too.

If you work in nursing homes, clinics or hospitals, you might want to go home and smudge yourself to help deter infection from pathogens that hitched a ride on your clothes.

Research has found that burning sage for an hour reduced the levels of bacteria in the air by 94 percent, and this benefit lasted for 24 hours.

If you don’t want to burn it, drinking sage tea is an option. You can make your own white sage tea, or buy a commercially prepared form at health. Food stores and online.

ASIDE (Continued from Page 5) were exaggerated.

Youngkin said that while he thought he might feel some pressure to step aside in the meeting, “it didn’t go that way.”

The Democratic chairman, he said, was “very cordial” and “listened” to what he had to say.

“We came up with the best conclusion for everyone involved,” Youngkin said. “To be truthful, the ramifications around my initial statement were overwhelming. There were a lot of people who were disappointed that I was in a position to accept the election result and that my intentions were to serve. Many people assumed I was going to step down.

That is not how I viewed it after I suspended my campaign, but that’s how other people saw it.”

Youngkin added that some voters told him that when they voted for him, they were voting for a placeholder.

“But by the same token, a lot of people voted for me because they know who I am,” Youngkin said. “They knew that the television and printed material was embellished.”

He added that, “he had just been looking

at the police report (of the incident involving his former wife), and that the officer involved stated that there was no injury or violence to any parties.”

Pointing out that there are more than half a million people in Burlington County, Youngkin said he did not want the focus to be on him, but on the needs of those residents.

He also expressed his enthusiasm about Third Congressional District Democratic candidate Andy Kim’s having declared victory in his challenge to Republican Rep. Tom MacArthur.

“I didn’t want to be a distraction to the voters and jeopardize his chances,” Youngkin said. “I didn’t want to take away from any of the victories or fracture the party.”

Noting that public service has always been “a natural calling” for him,” he said he now intends to devote his retirement to volunteer work and to helping low-income families.

He said he has already ordered that his remaining campaign funds, nearly $25,000, be donated to his favorite charity, Providence House, a non-profit organization whose mission is to provide addiction, domestic violence, mental health, trauma and abuse recovery services to more than 100,000 individuals annually.

“I still think I have a lot to offer,” Youngkin said.

The Perfect GARDENER COLUMN Watch your crops for signs of the spotted lanternfly

Scientists and farmers are working together to stop the spread of a newly detected invasive species that could represent a serious threat to American agriculture — the spotted lanternfly (Lycorma delicatula). Native to East Asia, the spotted lanternfly was first observed in Pennsylvania in 2014. Since then, officials have attempted to contain the spread by putting the affected parts of Pennsylvania under quarantine. However, the insects have since been spotted in the nearby states of Delaware, Virginia and New York.

The spotted lanternfly feeds on a wide variety of plants, including many commercial crops. So far, the insects have caused serious damage to grapevines, apple and peach trees and hardwood timber trees.

They’ve also been spotted on grain crops like hops and soybeans. According to the Department of Agriculture, the spread of this invasive species across the US could severely impact the country’s grape, orchard and logging industries. Furthermore, while many insects only lay eggs in soil or on living plants, spotted lanternflies can lay eggs on almost any surface, from firewood and brush to cars and lawn furniture. This makes it very easy for people to inadvertently carry the eggs into other areas and contribute to the spread.

If you see a spotted lanternfly outside the known affected areas, you should try to capture it and put it in alcohol to preserve it. Contact your state Department of Agriculture or call the Invasive Species Hotline at 1-866-253-7189. If you live in the quarantine zone, try to stave off the insects by using the proper insecticides. Make sure to inspect items carefully for spotted lanternflies or egg masses before transporting them out of the quarantine area.

What Gizmo Will They Think Up Next?

I can’t help but marvel at technology.

When I was a kid, I remember looking at our 19” television set and thinking, well, there’s no improving on that. We had moving pictures and color and, thanks to a wired remote, we could change channels from the comfort of the couch.

When Dad brought home our first top-loading VCR we were in heaven. I could not believe that a person could watch a movie anytime she wanted.

To show our appreciation, we were always kind enough to rewind before returning the cassette to the video store.

I’m really going to be dating myself here, but after my siblings and I completed all of our Saturday chores, we were rewarded with a dollar so we could go to Murphy’s Modern Music and buy the latest Top Ten release in the form of a 45 record.

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun.

The thing that impresses me the most are the advancements made with telephones.

Back in the day there was simply a party line. Or so I’ve been told. You knew by the number of rings if the call was for your residence and sometimes you would listen in even if it wasn’t. How else could one keep up on the latest news, happenings and gossip?

It’s not like they had email.

The operators became personal friends, receptionists and darn near members of the family.

Then private lines came along and what a technological marvel that was! Suddenly one could talk, at length, without interruption. My own dear mother had a phone cord that was no less than 20’ long. She would visit while she mopped, chat it up in the laundry room and catch up on family news while doing the dishes.

I’ll never forget watching "Risky Business'' on the big screen and seeing Tom Cruise on his portable phone. I couldn’t believe that such a device existed and wondered how much it would take to lay my hands on one.

Just think how far we have come. One day we’re ringing an operator with pertinent information, and the next we’re calling from the front lawn to say hello.

Suddenly we had bag phones, followed by cell phones and before we knew it we were linked to the world of availability 24/7.

That has its advantages as well as disadvantages.

“Where have you been?” my son asked one day.

“I was doing laundry,” I replied “Without your cell phone?” he asked in disbelief.

“It’s not a crime in most states.”

Lori Clinch COLUMNIST

“What if I desperately needed to reach you?”

“Ever hear of a land line?”

“What if I’m laying in a ditch somewhere and only had enough strength for one phone call?”

Leave it to Vernon.

Yet, I don’t mind my cell phone in my hip pocket. I love voice messaging, caller id and my own, personal contact list.

I don’t miss my long distance bill, wrong phone numbers and collect calls from my dear brother on Christmas Day. Call waiting is a dream when it’s utilized correctly. Although I’m loathe to put someone on hold while I take a second call, it certainly comes in handy at times.

Unless, of course, the someone that you put on hold for another call happens to be your mother. It’s really bad when the second call takes longer than one would like and, thanks to a failing memory, one forgets that she had left a loved one waiting in the balance.

“Well,” Mother said when I finally terminated the second call. “Isn’t this a fine how-do-you-do?”

Before I could apologize, she told me that she had waited for so long that the phone had grown attached to her ear, that her neck had permanent damage and that she had lost 20 minutes of her life that she’d never get back.

Not only that, but while I had her on hold, she missed several calls and was quite certain that one of them could have been a call from Publisher’s Clearinghouse telling her that she had finally won her millions.

Perhaps not all technological advancements are improvements. After all, she might not have been as upset if she could have chatted it up with the other folks on the party line.

UPSET (Continued from Page 4) Another priority for Fenster is to work together with council to place more pressure on banks to maintain deteriorating properties in town.

“Some municipalities implemented very large fees on banks to put more pressure on them to maintain poorly maintained properties,” he said. “The borough has a very small fee (schedule should it choose to implement it on a bank). We need to ensure public safety is being kept up.”

Fenster is “hoping to not have an antagonistic relationship” with Griffin as he works to implement some of his ideas in the borough.

Griffin and Fenster have gotten into some public verbal exchanges in the past.

“I know he cares a lot about how the borough

looks,” Fenster said. “But, sometimes I feel he does not push hard enough.”

Griffin said he will consider “good ideas” from either Fenster or Rutherford.

“I will not do everything they ask me to do,” Griffin said. “However, if they give me a good idea for the borough, I will take it under advisement.”

A working telephone number for Rutherford could not be found to inter view him.

Interestingly, Fenster said he also did not have a working telephone number for Rutherford.

“I submitted a petition to run,” Fenster said.

“He got a Democratic position on the ballot after winning enough write-in votes during the primary. I wasn’t able to reach him and we ran separately.”

Fenster said he hopes that he and Rutherford will get a chance to talk pretty soon when they are sworn in on council.

Ward could not be immediately reached for comment.

VICTORY (Continued from Page 1)

law signed by Gov. Phil Murphy in August requiring that such ballots be given to anyone who showed up at the polls, but voted by mail in the 2016 election and failed to opt out of that arrangement in writing.

In addition, due to a new state law, mail-in ballots postmarked by 8 p.m. on Election Day could arrive up to 48 hours after the polls closed and still be counted. Officials picked up and counted the last eligible mail bag only on Thursday evening.

“This has been a hard-fought campaign and like Andy Kim, I’m ready to see it come to an end,” said MacArthur on Wednesday night as Kim declared victory. “I have always said that I will be guided by the voters of the district and there are nearly 7,000 more of them who haven’t been heard from yet. We must ensure that their votes—and all votes—are counted in a transparent way that protects the integrity of this election.”

The uncertainty began in the hours after the polls closed and was most evident at what was billed as an “Election Night Celebration” for MacArthur Tuesday.

The gathering, at the Days Hotel in Toms River, began with a rather festive mood as a couple hundred supporters dined on a lavish buffet in the ballroom of the hotel while watching election results on Fox News.

As the MacArthur affair began at 8 p.m., members of the media were warmly received and thanked for coming.

The mood soured a bit when the network projected that New Jersey Republican senatorial candidate Bob Hugin would lose to Sen. Robert Menendez—which some of those present blamed on North Jersey voters—but MacArthur supporters remained confident

WWW.PINEBARRENSTRIBUNE.COM

that the congressman would retain his seat.

By the witching hour, however, Ocean County Republican Committee Chairman George Gilmore said that there was still no clear winner of the congressional race, and the candidate would therefore not be addressing the gathering.

Gilmore told the disappointed crowd that while MacArthur had done quite well with conservative voters in northern parts of Ocean County, many provisional ballots still needed to be counted, especially in Burlington County.

The latter includes Philadelphia suburbs that have been leaning increasingly Democratic.

“There is no ability at the present time to know how many provisional ballots are in Burlington County or how many are in Ocean County,” Gilmore said. “Although we feel confident that Tom is in the lead and that he will move on to be successful—that is my opinion—unfortunately, Tom cannot make a statement tonight, we’ll have to wait.”

W hen some re por ter s subsequently attempted to query MacArthur, who was ensconced in a meeting room off the lobby, they were shooed away by his campaign manager, Frank Luna.

“He can’t make a statement tonight,” Luna said. “You got what you got.”

After reiterating that assertion several times, Luna cut the journalists’ questions short by asking them to leave.

MacArthur’s failure to make an appearance before his supporters was in distinct contrast to his opponent, who did not hesitate to appear on Election Night before his own enthusiastic crowd at a reception in Mount Laurel.

During that appearance, Kim highlighted how few were convinced a Democratic candidate could get to within striking distance in a race within a district that is primarily Republican.

“No one thought we could do this,” Kim told the crowd. “They were saying this was

Democratic 3rd Congressional District candidate Andy Kim speaks to supporters on election night.

impossible, but look what we’ve been able to do. We’ve been able to make this one of the most competitive races in the country.

As Kim overcame MacArthur in the election tally and held the impromptu Wednesday night celebration to cheers of “Andy! Andy!

Andy,” the former official of President Barack Obama’s administration reiterated much of what he had said the night before, describing his campaign as being “about the people” and “restoring civility in politics.”

“What I promise you is that it is going to be more than just words,” said Kim, before holding his two children in his arms. “We are going to make sure that we get to action and be able to do what we need to do right now to move our country on a better path. Your strength is my strength and my strength is yours, and today we have built something that is going to build a better future for all of us.”

Kim, if he is sworn in, will become only the

second Democrat in recent times to represent New Jersey’s Third Congressional District.

The late John Adler was the other Democrat to represent the district from 2008 to 2010.

Adler, who replaced long-time Rep. Jim Saxton, was unseated in 2010 by former Eagles lineman Jon Runyan.

MacArthur was elected in 2014 after Runyan chose not to seek re-election and retired.

Burlington County election officials said Thursday that all of the provisional ballots may not be counted until early next week.

Ocean County election officials said Thursday that it could take more than a week to count all of the provisional ballots cast there.

The Second Congressional District also includes all of Atlantic, Cape May and Salem counties as well as parts of Camden, Cumberland, and Gloucester counties.

“I congratulate all candidates running yesterday at local and federal levels,” LoBiondo said. “My staff and I look forward to an orderly transfer of casework and constituent services to Congressman-elect Van Drew and his team to ensure a seamless transition for South Jersey residents.”

END (Continued from Page 5) involved with council until the last day of his term.

“I can’t say this enough—our people did a great job,” he said. “Unfortunately, the voters felt differently.”

Brown was a little angrier than Zeuli about Tuesday’s outcome.

“I don’t know (Veasy) really, but she and her running mates may find out that governing is a hell of a lot harder than campaigning,” he said. “I think the results were a travesty.”

Brown blamed Third Congressional District Republican Congressman Tom McArthur for the Democratic victory in Evesham, which is part of the Third Congressional District.

“I put it in the hands of Tom McArthur and (blame) the job he did,” he said. “He took away years of Republican control in Evesham in one

WWW.PINEBARRENSTRIBUNE.COM night by his poor decisions. This election had nothing to do with us, because we were the number-one town in South Jersey.”

Brown said he also thought that there was a shortsightedness on the part of Evesham voters who were mad at President Donald J. Trump.

“Voters said that they were going to penalize county Republicans who have done great things,” he said. “Huge mistake.”

Brown declined to say what his plans were for his remaining time in office, only saying that, “You better bring your popcorn for the next two months.”

As for Veasy, she said that she and the new councilwomen are ready for the challenge facing them.

“I just want to say thank you to all of the residents of Evesham and everyone who came out to vote for us and believed in us,” she said.

“We really are going to work the best we can for them for the next four years.”

2019 INFINITI QX50

N

issan’s luxury division is betting big on the QX50 for 2019. The compact crossover’s V6 engine is being replaced by an innovative new technology, as Infiniti becomes the first automaker to offer the general public a variable compression engine. This high-tech 2.0-litre 4-cylinder is a big upgrade from the 3.7-litre atmospheric V6 previously found in many Nissan and

Infiniti models.

According to Infiniti, the innovative engine plays a double role: it conserves power while reducing fuel consumption by 30 percent. With the ability to adjust its compression ratio throughout the drive, it consumes less fuel without sacrificing performance. It’s slightly less powerful than the V6 but brings down fuel con­s umption from 12 to nine litres per 100 kilometres.
