Pleasantville is a lower-middle class predominantly black suburb of Atlantic City with many casino employees living there. Very heavily Dem (as is most of Atlantic County).

What a terrible state of affairs. The Dims are demonstrably corrupt and the Republicans are demonstrably inept.

They will have to change the name of the town to Unpleasantville.

Chances are they’re not Republicans — it’d be in the headline, IMO. ;)
