In an interview a couple weeks ago, Mitch McConnell stated that it is doubtful the Republican Party will win the Senate as we have lackluster candidates running. Is this his method of trying to get Republican voters out to vote? This talk of a red wave will not happen if we do not vote.
The turnout for the primary in this county, while increased from the previous voting year, was lacking. It will be repeated again and again, if you don't vote, you've given the vote to the Democrats and that's a loss for America. Higher taxes and uncontrolled inflation has raped this country. Open borders allows undocumented individuals into our country and it has led to increased drug trafficing and human trafficing.
There are new outbreaks of polio and tuburculosis. Allowing "educated" individuals to say that a person's sex and gender are different! And how is it that if a person kills a pregnant woman and the baby dies as well it's considered double homicide yet allowing a doctor, who has taken an oath to do no harm, can kill a child even after it is born and it's' considered OK?
If we fail to vote, we fail America and this we CANNOT do.
