  We support returning CHOICE to the American people. We acknowledge that improvements in the health care system

                         are needed but the ACA is not the answer; nor is a government run single payer system. Congressman Perry, even though we do not march in the streets, we are the silent majority and will support you in the effort to repeal the Affordable Care Act.

Why is Voting in a Primary Election Important?

By Daniel Spangler


 Do you know that voting is a very special privilege for all of us in

The United States of America?  Are you ready to use this privilege in May when the primary

 elections come?  The United States of America is the best country in the world because

 every citizen eighteen and over can vote.


It doesn't matter who your friends are, how much money you make or what 

religion you are. You still have the right to vote.  Everyone has one and only 

one vote, so we all are equal! Every single vote sends a message that tells 

candidates what you support and what you believe. This is why it is 

important to vote.

          Even in a primary election, your vote still matters because it tells what

 you believe or what changes you would like.  The people who are in your 

local government offices make decisions that will effect your life now and

in the future.  You can help make decisions about local schools, police and

fire departments, court systems and much more when you vote in the 

primary elections. Because this great country is a republic and we have the

privilege of being able to choose a leader to best represent us, it is important

to take the time to learn about the candidates, think about who you will vote 

for, and then go vote.  This way we have a voice in current issues.  


Though national  elections are important, local primaries are too because 

these people still represent us and have decision- making power. If you don't 

take a stand for what you believe by voting, nothing may ever change. 


          In addition, all politicians everywhere, watch to see what age group of 

people votes the most.  Then they use that information to help them decide 

what actions to take. For example, if most of the voters were sixty years or 

older, the politicians are going to listen to what is important to them more 

than a younger group with  less voters.  This is a reason to get your friends 

to vote. Then you�ll have more people in your age group and the politicians

will be more likely to listen to you. 


          You  have an opportunity to impact the future. You do have a voice

with opinions that matter.  Don't stay quiet. Let your voice be heard and 

vote in the primaries on May 19.

Definition of Republican

We want to reaffirm what we believe it means to be a Republican in Adams County

��Our country, our families, and the God given rights that we have been granted are of primary
importance to us.

��We believe in individual rights as written in the Declaration of Independence and that all men are
created equal. We further believe that we are guaranteed the rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness.

��We affirm that the US Constitution, as written, the law of the land and goes hand in hand with the Bill
of Rights.

��As citizens of the United States we have fundamental duties and responsibilities to be involved in the
process of protecting our rights and perpetuating our freedoms.

��We believe the primary role of government is to defend our country and protect it from our enemies
foreign and domestic.

��We want value for the taxes we pay. We feel that free enterprise, unfettered by burdensome taxes and
regulations, performs better and more efficiently than government bureaucracy. In addition we need less
government intrusion and regulation in our personal lives.

��We believe that the Judicial branches of federal, state and local governments are bound to honor the
Constitution and Bill of Rights.

��We believe in the fundamental self worth of each human being. Life is sacred.
