Michael Collins
Ocean County Freeholder Candidate

Michael Collins believes Ocean County government need citizen watchdogs to help keep government honest and affordable. That's why he supports moving the Freeholder meeting time from 4:00 in the afternoon to the evenings so that working residents can see and question their government. Michael will make cutting government costs a top priority. He'll slash lawyers' fees and cut the $6 million in overtime costs that taxpayers are being forced to foot the bill for. Michael currently lives with his wife in Eagleswood Township and is a 25 year resident of Ocean County. He is a Civil litigator with 25 years experience protecting the interests of his clients and volunteered as a coach for the Southern Regional High School Mock Trial team.
