Posted by Karen Asche | October 7, 2024, 4:52 pmRegardless of the side you are on, my hope is that your decision is being made based on facts and not the junk you get in the mail. PACs from both sides of the aisle have tried everything and anything to scare you into voting/not voting for Melinda or Beth. PACs take the approach you are ignorant.
DON’T SUCCUMB TO SCARE TACTICS
VOTE BASED ON KNOWLEDGE NOT FEAR
