Dear Editor, 

I thoroughly enjoy keeping in touch with my hometown via Vinton Today, thank you to all who make this possible. 

Robust conversations held here are good for the soul. I saw a book recently that sums up all the "Reasons to vote for Democrats."  The book is by Michael Knowles and is a quick read. 

I agree completely with every single point that he makes in the book. Right now we are focused on Vice President Harris as the new nominee. Whether it is her or someone else, it doesn't matter, the agenda will be the same. 

If you're happy where you are, then she, or whoever they decide will serve instead will continue on the path that we are on. Open border, propping up a president as the face of every activity going on behind closed doors, a dysfunctional Secret Service who has had several breaches in the last three and half years, service members being killed, billions in equipment left for terrorists to use, the list goes on. 

Thank you for your time, and please consider carefully who you vote for this year!

Sue Martinson
