Middle Township Mayor, and Cape GOP Vice-Chairman Tim Donohue commented,” It’s great to see such a large and enthusiastic turn out for the ribbon Cutting of our headquarters right here in Middle Township.” “We firmly believe that elections are won on the ground and the folks here today for this ribbon-cutting, the ones who stuff the envelopes, make the phone calls and knock on the doors, will make the difference when it comes to winning or losing on election day and we all look forward to putting our efforts into a higher gear over the next eight weeks.”
