Why We Should All Support Donald Trump – Commentary by Ruth Peterson (Part 1)
People have asked why I would vote for Donald Trump, because I’ve been quite clear that I’m not a fan of his personality – I don’t like his tweeting and I certainly don’t like his tendency to call people names. I know I’m not alone, so I’d like to mention some reasons...
Election Recommendations – including non-partisan races
As most people know who have received my emails in the past, I usually write a book, because I believe it’s important to explain the issues. I decided this year to change the format a bit. I wrote quite a few posts about the issues and posted them on the Lewis County...
Vote “REJECTED” on Referendum 90
A bill requiring schools to teach Sexual Education was passed this year by our very progressive Democrat-dominated Legislature over the objections of tens of thousands of people. But fortunately, our Constitution allows the people to have redress. R90 will repeal this...
Write in Joshua Freed for Lt. Governor!
In our state, we have the top two primary system. That means that it is possible that when the primary is over, you do not have a Republican and Democrat candidate (which is what a primary is for), but instead, you have two people from the same party. The primary for...
Another Ballot Measure – A Constitutional Amendment
Any time we propose to change the Constitution, we should do so with a great deal of caution. However, this particular change is a good idea. The Constitution prohibits the state from having equity investments. The concern is real that government money would be used...
Ballots are out – Need More Information?
Ballots are coming out all over the state - either they've already been sent or will be sent out in the next few days. So you should get your ballot by the 16th or so. Need a new ballot? Have you moved recently? Need to know where to take that ballot, if you don't...
About the Advisory Votes on your Ballot
Advisory votes are just opinion polls. The results do not legally do anything. Even if every voter in the entire state voted against them, the law would still stand. I my opinion, you should just vote “repealed” on all of them. While they have no force of law at all,...
Vote Republican – it’s more critical than ever!
If you want to stop the mileage tax, you need to vote Republican this November. I have found that a lot of people don't often understand the overwhelming power of state agencies, and they certainly don't understand who has jurisdiction over them. Agency rules and...
Bad News for Washington -No Legislative Session until January
This is terrible news. Right now, the Governor has total control over our lives, passing regulations and rules that have the force of law. Our Constitution clearly states that it is the job of the Legislative Branch - not the Executive Branch to write these laws. Over...
Trump signs are in!
Trump signs are in! We have them available in three sizes. The signs are navy blue background with white letters. You can find a photo on Trump's campaign website. We have a lot of the smaller signs but just a few of the larger ones. We are asking for donations to...
