I want my vote back | Letter to the Editor


February 22, 2013 · Updated 12:14 PM 

Where do we line up to get a vote back? Those of us who voted for Rodney Tom last time understood him to be a Democrat. He said he was. In a Democratic district it made sense to say that you were one, too, if you wanted to get elected. Now he is the “Democrat” leading the state senate Republicans in their assaults on minimum wage, people who are sick and educators. He got my vote under false pretense. That won’t happen again.
