Pat Safrit Bullard, “All NC Republicans in Congress voted  to dismantle democracy when they voted not to certify the free and fair election of 2020, including Ted Budd…”

In the 10-16-22 letter to the Editor, Salisbury Post, Richard Derr’s, ‘Republicans threatening 246-year experiment’  is so correct as the threat to the US democratic republic started even before the Jan. 6 Failed Coup Attempt, and those extreme elements are still very much at work. The percentage who vote in the United States is less than those in other democracies and the extremists continue to deny the right to vote to many through gerrymandering, etc. 

Yes to early voting, but vote for someone who won’t dismantle our democracy. Not registered to vote, you can register during early voting if you have lived in the county in which you register for at least 30 days.

All NC Republicans in Congress voted  to dismantle democracy when they voted not to certify the free and fair election of 2020, including Ted Budd, gop running for US Senate seat. In addition, Ted Budd is a strong supporter of gun violence and loose gun safety laws, opposed lowering drug costs for all Americans after accepting much money from drug companies, introduced legislation to criminalize abortion in all cases, and would jail doctors as well.   

Budd’s many faults are endless, so vote for Cheri Beasley for US Senate, as she would not dismantle US democracy. The best bet to save our United State’s democratic republic is to vote for Democrats. Do you want to see the US become autocratic, dictatorial?
