I am writing this in hopes to clear up some of the confusion that exists in our communities, especially those communities where there exists a majority of Democrats and blacks. After talking to some of them who say they are Democrats and are supporting President Obama, but have a sign in their yard that is from a Republican, they are being led to believe he is a Democrat.
Is this a conspiracy to have our vote not count? Who will benefit from this trickery? It is sad to see that this trickery has come to Clarke County. Is this another way Republicans are trying to gain control of the state House?
I suspect that this confusion is another way to dial back Democratic policies. Know who you are and don’t be confused. We have been labeled the 47 percent. Vote a straight Democratic ticket. We need to seek and vote for those candidates who have a record for justice and fairness, and not vote for those who want to turn back the clock. We need to question the integrity and honesty of those running for office. How can you support a candidate with something to hide?
