As you plan to cast your vote on Nov. 6, here are some things to consider: Which party is suppressing and denying the voting rights of hundreds of thousands of American citizens across our country in order to increase its chances to remain in power?
Which party is separating helpless little children from their parents and interring them in camps?
Which party believes that the health care of adult American women must be restricted and governed by the values of others?
Which party disrespected the governing standards and long-accepted precedents to prevent a legitimate nomination to the Supreme Court, then refused to follow its own new guidelines and placed their own candidate?
Which party raised the national debt by 1½ trillion dollars in order to gift the wealthiest individuals and corporations with huge permanent tax cuts while working-class citizens were given a few dollars for only a couple of years?
Which party, by its silence, condones the flagrant lies spewed by their leader at highly respected national figures, trusted agencies and the national media?
Which party’s representatives refuse to perform their constitutional duties to protect all Americans from the threats of war, from escalating gun violence, from hunger or poisoned drinking water?
If any of the above worries you, please help restore our beloved American ideals of liberty and justice for all by voting for the Democratic candidates on your ballot.
