It's a very Republican town.>>>>

Thanks for the directions, I guess you've been in town before. Where is a good place to eat?

Ridgewood, because of the train station and trains to NYC, like Montclair, is becoming more liberal because of transplants from New York. Did Garrett win Ridgewood, I don't remember.

I know Ridgewood very well. If you'll be there around lunchtime, Fratelli Tratorria is excellent. So is 28 Oak St.,Joel's. The Office has good pubfare, not too expensive. You can't throw a rock in Ridgewood without hitting a restaurant.

I believe that Garrett won, because in the Ridgewood News, a few months ago in an editorial, a woman said that she didn't believe Garrett represented the interests of his constituency because he favored oil drilling in the ANWR. She's probably one of those NYC transplants you referred to. They only come to the town for the school system, their kids are a bunch of spoiled brats/future eco-moronic losers, with about as much common sense and street smarts as a tree sloth. After graduation from the High School, the kids go to:(Insert liberal school here), parents quickly find a condminium somewhere way the heck away from there. This is after the property taxes go way through the roof, and anyone age 25-40 has a snowball's chance in hell of affording even the cheapest house in that town.
