I feel that now is the time for me to speak out against all the misinformation that has recently been offered up in support of an individual who would like us to believe that there is strong public support for her candidacy for mayor of Royal Palm Beach. Martha Webster would like us to believe that she is “the people’s candidate” when, in fact, her political history belies that. The truth is that she is a three-time loser, even having been defeated by David Swift, who now is her accomplice in perpetuating their version of fiction.
Swift has even alluded to former County Commissioner Jess Santamaria’s “hand-picked candidate” in an attempt to cast doubt on Fred Pinto’s loyalty to the people of our village. Well that just won’t work. The fact is that Fred has served the people of Royal Palm Beach as a council member and vice mayor for more than a decade. He has worked side-by-side with me to achieve a debt-free village, no increase in taxes and to have Royal Palm Beach recognized as “one of the 10 best cities to live in.”
So I ask you, is this record of service something that you are willing to give up for a three-time loser? The answer is clear: Fred Pinto is the right person to carry on our village’s legacy of success as the next mayor of Royal Palm Beach. I strongly support him and urge you to give him your vote on March 15.
Mayor Matty Mattioli, Royal Palm Beach
