September 12,2008 -- The third leg of the Roll took in five towns in the Eighth: North Haledon, Haledon, Prospect Park, Paterson and Totowa. In each town, voters were excited to hear about Roland's plans to change Washington. Roland was especially pleased to bring his message to the people of the City of Paterson where he has long been an advocate for economic growth.

Thursday, September 4 -- The second leg through Wayne is complete!

The 2nd leg of the Roll started at the Wayne Pompton Lakes border on Hamburg Turnpike at 10:30, Thursday September 4 and proceeded down Hamburg Turnpike to College Road where we made a left turn heading toward Haledon. It was a hot day and we took a slight detour through the Preakness shopping center where we met quite a few people.

Thursday, August 28 -- The first Roll through Pompton Lakes is completed!

We had a beautiful day for the first leg of the Roll from Pompton Lakes to South Orange. At the very start a photographer from the Record took some pictures. In the middle of town Scott Pringle of WGHT radio interviewed Roland.
