To the editor,
Yes politics gets old, but it matters who wins. So here goes.
There is a website not associated with either party and they have past voting records of elected officials and candidates who held elective office before. No ads at all. www.Votesmart.org.
The past voting records are a reliable gauge of what they will do if elected. Please check it out.
This election is about Social Security and Medicare and taxes. if Paul Ryan’s two congressional votes to turn Medicare into a voucher program don’t trouble you and you are at or nearing retirement, then you are not paying attention!
When the Gore vs. Bush election was held it was decided by a razor thin and much contested vote.
Your vote matters.
See you at the polls.
