Donnelly right choice for Councilman of Ward B

Dear Editor:
I think that all the candidates that have entered the Ward B council seat race should be commended for their dedication and their desire to serve the public, and I hope that they continue to do so after Nov. 2. Only with their help will Ward B and Jersey City become a better place to live.
However, I think that in this election, David Donnelly is the right choice for Councilman for Ward B. As a lifelong resident, he has deep roots in the community with a strong family background in public service. He has not only worked in government, but also works with the United Way and knows the hardships that people are experiencing in Jersey City with this severe recession. He knows that the benefits of the development of the waterfront have not touched everyone in Jersey City especially in Ward B. As we move forward in planning the future development of Route 440 with its very positive influence on surrounding neighborhoods, I believe David Donnelly can make sure that all of Ward B benefits from these improvements. With his unique experience of working in both the executive and legislative branches of the Jersey City Government, I think he can bring improvements and safety to his ward today and tomorrow. I believe he is honest, engaged, and capable to help his ward; therefore, I ask the citizens of Ward B to cast their vote for David Donnelly for Ward B Councilman. I am sure that he will make you proud. Thank you.
