Election Reminders and Information

Posted onAuthorcahwyguy

userpic=voteFirst and foremost, the most important election reminder: Get out and Vote. This election is critical — not only at the top of the race, but in the down-ticket races, and the measures and propositions in your area. You allow someone else to control your life if you don’t vote. Soldiers and many others have given their lives so that you can exercise the privilege. If you haven’t registered yet or are unsure, and you’re in LA County, visit the County Registration Page. Elsewhere in California? Visit here. Some other state? Visit here.

Are you a Trump supporter? I urge you to reconsider: the man has not the experience or the demeanor. But, you say, Hillary is a crook — just look at all the email issues and Benghazi. Those are just a canard, and reflect misunderstanding about how email work in that part of government. Consider this: If you are considering Trump innocent of all the accusations of sexual improprieties because nothing has been proven in court and there is no conviction, you must apply the same rule to Clinton: she has never been convicted in a court of law, and is thus innocent until proven guilty. If Clinton is guilty, then Trump is a sexual predator, antisemite, and racist. You can’t have it both ways.  Oh, and if you think what Trump did is no worse than Clinton did, think again.

But, you say, abortion. Try again.

But, you say, you don’t understand the concerns of the Trump voters. Actually, I do.

But, you say, I read such and such on social media. Hint: It likely wasn’t true, wasn’t the whole story, or was sensationalized.

But, you say, … I say set aside all the character claims, and on experience, demeanor, understanding of government, and positions, she wins hands down.

But, you say, she shafted Bernie Sanders, and he should have been the candidate. Trust me, you wouldn’t have wanted to see that.

Next, if you haven’t seen it, here are the links to my ballot analysis:
