Vote!

Today is election day. Today is the one day politicians and prospective politicians actually listen to us (with very rare exception). For way too long people only go once every four years and don’t think its important to vote in local elections. Wrong. You’re a taxpayer and a citizen. Here are a few examples of when you don’t vote!

School boards push the LGBTQ agenda and let male students use the restroom and locker rooms of female students

No school choice

Property tax increases

Car tax

Sales tax on groceries

Tolls on roads already built and paid for

Criminals not being prosecuted

Restrictions on where you can carry your firearm in public places

Defunding the police

Removing statutes

Sanctuary cities

Sheriff’s refusal to turn over illegal aliens in custody to ICE

Your vote counts. Virginia is the perfect example. In 2021, Northern Virginia voted for Glenn Younkin for governor. I say Northern Virginia because this part of the Old Dominion now holds the seat of power like New York City or Chicago. Candidate Terry McAuliffe said that parents did not have the right to say what their children can learn. Younkin jumped on that and won! And he has kept his promise. In 2022, I actually met Governor Younkin at a political rally. I told him my issues with my kids public schools and the LGBTQ flags. He referred me to someone in his office who would look into this. And he has. The governors office has also looked into other issues on my behalf and got back to me promptly! Governor Younkin wanted to have a school choice program statewide. And the Democrat State Senate shot it down because the teachers union did not want it! And you stayed home! Thanks!

Again; your vote is your voice! Use it!
