Expressed concerns for the democratic republic in the United States should not be diminished, nor minimized. The clarity and adherence to the U.S. Constitution is only as solid as the majority of its citizens allow it and make it.
There are many avenues to freedom, independence, and government in a democratic republic. One of those avenues is the freedom to vote. The next Election Day will be Tuesday, Nov. 8 and early voting in the State has been ongoing. Those who requested ballots to be sent by mail augment the voting process. It is up to each person to understand the issues and cut through the incorrect information, false salesmanship, and yet, each person’s vote is sacred and must be respected. It is another feature of living in a democratic republic. Should be enough said, however, the vigil is continual for advocates of our type of government who seek to shed moving closer to autocracy!
