Letter to the Editor: Says right to vote was taken away in 97th District

By Community Member | October 22, 2019 12:51 pm

Most people that know me know I have a love of American history. We can learn from and be guided by those lessons that our forefathers and foremothers taught us.

I urge the citizens of the 97th Delegate District to remember the words of Thomas Jefferson that he wrote in the Declaration of Independence: “Governments are instituted among men, deriving their powers from the consent of the governed.” I feel that in our district that was taken away when my vote was thrown in the trash can along with others.

The McDaugle/Norment/Wyatt cabal cannot and should not succeed. If it does, we are all turning our back on our history.

Please fill in the circle on the ballot and write-in Chris Peace.
