That is a perfect approach for me. My enthusiasm for campaigning is only really sparked when I get to talk one-on-one with Middle Township residents. I like getting to know people. And I like people getting to know me. You can’t get that neighborly exchange with campaign fliers, signs, or newspaper ads.
