State Worker Discusses Voting Rules for Local Candidacy
A state employee argues he can vote and express political views and run for local offices where partisan politics are absent, such as school boards, but not for town representative. Magnant says town representative candidacy is partisan and would violate state rules, since such a post is state funded and seen as a political office. Christie claims abrupt dismissal from a liquor store job, with no two week notice, and says he was told by Geraw he would receive a formal letter from the personnel director but none arrived.
