THE TIME HAS COME
November 8 marks the next general election – 2022 edition. This is our chance as U.S. citizens to influence our government, to perhaps change the direction of some of the unreasonable (devoid of any commonsense or moral standing) measures that have been pushed upon us in the last few years.
If anyone ever tells you that your vote does not count, ignore them. This is exactly the time for every citizen to go vote and have some impact on what is happening to our nation through our governmental entities.
I do have some observations of the current political/election activity:
- There are a lot of lies out there about issues as well as candidates that are being publicized widely, while real facts about both are hard to find – sometimes even suppressed. Unfortunately, we can no longer simply look to sources that in the past we may have trusted to be truthful and objective.
- Therefore, voters need to put in the time it takes to research and truly understand the relevant issues and candidates; then evaluate which candidate best fits your and your family’s values and morals and vote accordingly. Don’t be distracted by a party label or the bombardment of loud voices telling you what you should think and how you should vote.
So, voters, interpret this letter as an encouragement to vote. I think many of us are seeing things happening in our country that we never thought we would see – and don’t want to see – in the United States of America. Now is our chance to do something about it, but we must vote!
Where our country is as a world power, an economic power, and a free country is at stake. This is not the time be let down your family, community, state, country, and, not to be overlooked, your God! We cannot be silent!
Cast your vote on November 8! Don’t sit this one out!
PS: for a look at the complete ballot for a registered voter:
**do a Google search for the “Kansas Secretary of State”,
**click on Elections,
** scroll down to Voter View and click,
** enter applicable information and click Look Up,
** scroll down to Sample Ballot and click. This should be the ballot you will see on the 8th.
Be sure to look over the two state constitution amendments on page 2 of the ballot. It looks like these could be positive additions to this document.
