Election Day Draws Near
It looks like the Republican monster is getting desperate. The Republican Governor’s Association has now stooped so low as to use misleading robo-calls to show their support for candidate Jerry Kilgore, who is running for Governor of Virginia.
I often discuss politics and at some point during the conversation someone will say that a person’s individual vote doesn’t count, that there is no point in going to cast your vote because the decision has already been made. If this were true then the RGA wouldn’t be willing to violate federal laws to get their man in.
Thirteen electoral votes (based on the 2000 census) might not seem like a big deal but it’s pretty substantial and the Republicans obviously want to hold onto the state, leading me to believe that an individual’s vote is VERY important.
Politics is a dirty business and I’m not saying that the Democrats are some sort of shining example that would never use misleading tactics to get a vote. All I want is for people to go to the polls and let their voice be heard regardless of which party they vote for.
The game is on and we must all play…
