Election Eve

Presidential Election 2012

Here are some factors voters should take into account when casting a vote in the 2012 election.

Think about whether this candidate is a good person, someone you would trust to watch your wallet or purse if you had to rush off somewhere.


Consider how the candidate would spend your tax dollars. Get an idea what the candidate's priorities are, and see how that meshes with your ideas.

Lying by the candidate or his or her supporters should also be considered, although there has been so much prevarication in this election on all sides, it's hard to conclude who has lied more. Unfortunately, this is something to take into account.

If this person has held office before, look at what he or she has accomplished as a legislator, for example. Did the candidate sponsor any legislation or get any passed? If someone who simply occupies a seat in Washington, D.C., in Helena or preforming a job for county government.

Consider whether the candidate is beholden to special interests that might affect his or her votes or actions while in office. Also, if the job being sought is full-time, find out if your local candidate intends to do any moonlighting.

Running for office is no picnic, so we salute those willing to put their egos and their platforms on the line during this general election.

Please Vote Tuesday, November 6
