Letter: SC voters can send strong signal
Believe it or not. The election on Nov. 8 may change the direction of America for the next two or three decades. The choice is whether we become more like Europe or continue as a country that Alexander Hamilton started as believing that capitalism was our future.
South Carolina in the past few years has voted for the Republican nominee and probably will this time.
However, there is more to a Donald Trump victory in South Carolina. It is voter turnout. Whether you are a Democrat or a Republican, your collective votes will send a very strong message to Washington that you are fed up with the establishment and bureaucracy attitude. By our overwhelming voter turnout we will send a message that cannot be ignored. And, congressmen and senators listen to that voice. Both in Washington and in Columbia.
There is absolutely no reason that any registered voter in S.C. cannot vote. If you truly believe in the exceptionalism of America, voting is your chance to prove it.
