October 12, 2006 OPINION editorial^Unthom.oom EDITORIAL------EDITORIAL CARTOON An influential choice With campaign ads and mixed messages flooding the television, the Grand Valley State University community should tune into at least one gubernatorial debate to educate themselves on candidates' objectives. Making an educated vote is as important as voting itself. Before going to the polls Nov. 7, Michigan residents should know more about each candidate besides their democratic or republican affiliation. With the election quickly approaching, television stations are cluttered with commercials both endorsing and degrading Gov. Jennifer Granholm and her opponent Dick DcVbs. While this is to be expected at this time in the process, such ads may mislead uneducated voters. ! In addition to informational booklets and campaign Web sites, candidates’ objectives and opinions can be learned from watching the three gubernatorial debates aired live on television. Candidates have begun to discuss a variety of topics pertinent to YOUR INSIGHTS Michigan’s future, including Single Business Tax. jobs, embryonic stem cell research and Affirmative Action. With Michigan's employment rate standing as the lowest in the What do you look for in a governor nation, residents should be aware of candidates' motives and plans of action to turn the state around. This especially impacts students who candidate? graduate in the next several years, as they will be subject to searching for a job and may be forced to leave the state when doing so. By examining where each opponent stands on a topic, viewers can learn what priorities take precedence and how they plan to execute ideas for the betterment of Michigan. Rather than simply scanning Internet sites or falling subject to negative campaign advertisements, voters should watch the last debate Monday. It will be aired on channel 13 WZZM-TV and available to all CBS and ABC affiliates in the state. Those who missed Tuesday’s second debate can view a re-run by accessing woodtv.com.
