Election Day

Several of my dear friends are posting bulletins begging people to go out and vote. Their sentiments are begging voters to go out and oust the Republicans.

My request is opposite.

Don't vote.

If you are going out with an attitude of voting for a specific party; If you vote based on how your church, parents, place of business, general demographic, or any outside influence tells you rather than voting based on the issues at hand and how they impact our society, don't vote. It makes a mockery of our republic and weakens our way of life.

Vote for whomever you choose, but make an informed decision. Visit the League of Women Voters website. This organization has all issues and candidates laid out for an individual to make a decision on without bias or outside influence.

Get smart, people. freedom isn't cheap.
