Never have the stakes been so high in an election – so divisive, so black and white, so potentially life altering. Please vote, though when you read this, you may either be voting or already have voted. Thank you.
While I usually question the appropriateness of taking a political stand, I realize everything I stand for is at stake, so I am going out on a limb. If you disagree, so be it.
The editorial board of the New York Times made this comment, it spoke volumes to me in one simple paragraph, posted on 11-3-2024. I can’t put it more succinctly.
?“You already?know ?Donald Trump. He is?unfit ?to lead.?Watch him . Listen to?those ?who know him?best . He tried to?subvert ?an election and remains a?threat ?to democracy. He helped overturn Roe, with terrible?consequences . Mr. Trump’s?corruption ?and?lawlessness ?go?beyond ?elections : It’s his whole?ethos . He?lies ?without?limit . If he’s re-elected, the G.O.P. won’t?restrain ?him. Mr. Trump will use the?government ?to go after?opponents . He will pursue a?cruel ?policy of mass?deportations . He will wreak havoc on the?poor , the?middle class ?and?employers . Another Trump term will damage the?climate , shatter?alliances ?and strengthen?autocrats . Americans should demand?better . Vote.”
The choice is clear - It's time to elect a woman who is uniquely qualified to lead – support Harris/Walz.
Depending on the outcome on this election, I will write about how we go forward. I know that either way, it is more important than ever to shine your light, do what serves you and the greater good, and to put your best foot forward at all times. The US and the world need your activism, your compassion and concern for the welfare of others`.
Reach out if you’d like to talk about this. I know many people are extremely anxious. Let’s support one another!
