The Holmdel Republican Party officially kicked off its campaign for the November Election last night. An excited crowd of 100 supporters were on hand to support Tom Critelli and Joe Ponisi for Holmdel Township Commitee. Also on hand and receiving the unyielding support of the crowd was Freeholder Serena DiMaso who is also on the ballot this year.

There are no contested seats for Freeholder or Holmdel Township Committee in the Primary Election. Campaign Manager Tom Scarano noted that "with the Lucent redevelopment moving forward, Holmdel faces important decisions that will affect the future of our town." "Both our Tom Critelli and Joe Ponisi have the expertise to make these tough decisions. "  

Tom and Joe both spoke last night about their committeement to a balanced development of the Lucent Property. This approach must also preserve the character of Holmdel and be financially benefical to the Township and taxpayes.

Tom Critelli is the President and Founder of Danitom Development and a member of the Cross Farms Advisory Committee. Joe Ponisi is a financial consultant with over 25 years experience analyzing municipal credit and risk. Both Mr. Critelli and Mr. Ponisi look foward to walking the neighborhoods of Holmdel to meet and discuss the issues that we all face. More information can be found at www.holmdelrepublicanparty.com
