| 27. Do You Mean Make a Law REQUIRING That We Tell? |
|
WE already have the freedom to tell how we vote or not to tell. Since I'm a firm believer in choice, I'd leave it at that.
There are two bumperstickers on one of our cars: Kerry for President and Vets for Kerry. Buttons on my purse announce my political stance. If I don't feel like telling some nosy surveyer, I don't. If I feel like it, I will. I like having the choice.
What is the problem? Just a thought...how about servicemen and women who are "encouraged" to vote Republican. With the secret ballot they can still vote the way they want to vote because no one knows how they voted. Nope, nope, leave the secret ballot alone.
In our State primaries we must declare which ballot we want! Hardly secret ballot voting. And I don't like it.
