Getting Out a Yes Vote on Budgets

By DEBRA NUSSBAUM

IN Glen Ridge, the schools superintendent and other school board members laid out coffee and doughnuts at the train station in the center of town one recent morning to talk to residents about the need for more school financing and the coming school budget election.

In the West Windsor-Plainsboro Regional School District, a program called “The Voting Booth” started this year in an effort to try to get more yes votes on Election Day.

In Toms River, administrators and board members have scheduled 50 to 60 meetings to explain their budget to district voters.
