CITY WATCH urges you to vote on November 4th

As November 4th approaches it’s important for everyone to take the time to study the issues and the candidates and vote. Many men and women have fought and died to give us the freedom to go to the polls and vote for our government. Most of the people in the world do not have this privilege, so it’s important to realize what an honor and privilege it is to be able to determine our own destinies.

Government intrudes into almost every aspect of our lives. From our neighborhood HOAs to City Council to Sacramento and on to Washington, decisions made at all these levels influence just about everything we do.

Please spend some time today or tomorrow reviewing the issues and the candidates and if you haven‘t already voted by mail, please go to your local polling station and vote.
