No local candidates are on the ballot. No local issues are to be decided. Some countians may believe that it won't make much difference whether they go to the polls on Tuesday or not. These people are wrong. Deciding who will lead our country into this new century is very important.
Every vote counts and one vote can make a difference.
A Presidential Preference Primary usually doesn't bring out hordes of voters. Only those few die-hard Republicans and Democrats will take the time and effort to cast a vote in this election. Less than 20 percent of the 6,158 registered voters are expected to go to the polls. This is not a very good representation of our county. Our registered voters are encouraged to gather as much information as they can about the candidates over the next week and study it.
