TO THE EDITOR: I am very concerned about today’s political climate.

I believe our vote this November is very important, even if that means crossing party lines in order to put the best candidate in office. When I was younger, I would have never considered such a thing as crossing party lines, but times and politics have changed. That is why I am voting against party lines this year and voting Republican.

I have chosen to support Congresswoman Elise Stefanik because of her record. She has fought hard for the North Country and has made significant and positive change. Politicians can certainly talk-the-talk but can they deliver? Well, Elise Stefanik has.

Elise has recovered $4 million in Veterans Administration benefits for our North Country and has delivered $165 million for our local hospitals. These accomplishments are very important to the sustainment of our communities.

On the other hand, her opponent, who aligns with my registered party, has done nothing but cater to the interests and needs of the Hollywood liberals that donate to her campaign. That is why I will not cast my support for the Democrats this November.

I am writing this letter in order to bring my North Country neighbors aware of the few things Elise has accomplished and I firmly believe we need her to continue to represent the North Country.
