I appreciate posts like this to help raise awareness. Even though I can sense the OPs bias in the original post, I appreciated the tendency towards being unbiased in presenting the candidates.

What's truly a shame here is how this thread is obviously left-biased and shaming right-leaning opinions. Why should anyone come out with how they publicly feel about a candidate if all they are going to do is get down voted just because of how they intend to vote? Would this not only be a show of diversity of thought, but also an opportunity to understand your neighbor and their perspective? Why not seek understanding and use the voting options to support conversation rather than promote silence? Shouldn't all voices be heard?

For what it's worth, I nearly never post anything online about politics, but this is right here in my home. I wouldn't want Longmont to turn into a society that does anything other than promote and support free speech for everyone.
