Don't forget to VOTE!

Well Tuesday is election day once again and this will be our first chance to make our feelings known to those in government about the so called “pay raise” passed in recent months. We have them worried enough that they took time to rescind the shameful pay grab even though their seats are not on the ballot this time around. You will however get the chance to deny some judges who were part of the complete and total disrespect of the states taxpayers a return to the bench.

I only hope that anger that I have been hearing on talk radio in letters to the editor manifests itself at the polling booth day after tomorrow. Trust me if you and I don't stand up now and let it be know that enough is enough and we are not going to just sit by and let officials from any branch of the government get away with this abuse all will be lost.

They all counted on the fact that there would be wailing and moaning over the pay raise when it was enacted. But they knew that just like the other times in the past that it would be short lived and by the time the next election cycle came up it would be forgotten entirely.

Tuesday is your chance to show them that this time they have gone too far placing the last straw on the camels back as it were. Please vote! And encourage your friends and relatives to also go to the polls and vote. This election cycle and the next will be the “line in the sand” that will determine if there is going to be change in Harrisburg or not.
