On Oct. 31 the Mount Vernon Gazette ran an opinion piece by State Delegate Paul Krizek. It was another example of Democratic Party machine propaganda. He was telling people to vote for democracy by rejecting Trump. He made no mention of the Democratic party ticket of Harris and Walz. Is this the right way to talk to voters, trying to scare them into voting a certain way? And what about the other side of the story? There was no rebuttal by the Republicans. I resent the notion that everybody around here is part of the Democratic party machine. The American people voted as they saw fit. This is democracy. There is a great, big America out there beyond the Beltway and the federal government deep state swamp of Washington DC. Maybe the Democratic party needs to take stock of itself. Maybe Biden should have stayed on the ticket, maybe they made a mistake anointing Harris, maybe they made a mistake picking Walz as the VP. Take a good look at yourselves Democrats.
