• The opponent in our Senate race thinks global warming doesn’t exist.
• The opponent in our Congressional race plans to get rid of Social Security as we know it.
• One candidate for governor plans to scrap our public pension plan, effectively cutting my income by 30%.
• The opposing candidate for Senate is out of touch with the middle class, which means me.
• The opposing candidate for Congress has moved in and out of the district several times; whom does he really represent?
• Many candidates talk about cutting taxes by reducing education budgets – budgets that have already been cut to the bone.
• Candidates are talking about judging teachers by their students’ test scores. If that’s the case, people, give me a chance. Bring these kids into my class reading and achieving at grade level.
• I can’t afford to donate enough to my candidates, but I can’t afford not to; if the wrong side wins, my working conditions will worsen severely.
• Misleading advertising might just tip voting in the wrong direction.
• Negative advertising might encourage people to stay home, and low voter turnout is never good.
