We have a very important day coming on November 8th! Election Day! There are many important choices before us. I have stayed neutral on the general election on all races. Albeit, I have been asked to endorse many. I have chosen not to publicly get involved in any race. Recently, there has been a candidate that is using my name and stating that I am endorsing them. That is far from the truth... I am NOT involved with this candidate or their campaign in fact, with any campaign, and will not share my vote with anyone. So, if you hear of anyone stating that “‘Diamond Dan’ is supporting me for my candidacy,” then you will know it is a farce. Just get out and exercise your right and vote. And God Bless America! P.S. Help our State of Kansas! ~ Dan Brenner ~ ______HOLTON RECORDER, WEDNESDAY, OCT. 26, 2016, PAGE 4 Election talk Local voters have certainly had some good opportunities to meet, greet and visit candidates for local, state and national of- fices recently. The “Meet And Greet’’ event held at the J a c k s o n C o u n t y C o u r t - OPINION house last Saturday morning was well-attended by the candidates – 13 were in at- tendance. And the Jackson County Re- publican Party’s “Candidate Forum’’ in Holton on Monday evening also drew many of the same candidates. A candidate meet and greet held at Hoyt last Wednesday also was well-attended, it was reported. Voter attendance at all three of the events could have been much better, however. Last Saturday’s “Meet And Greet’’ drew only about 60 peo- ple and the Republican Party’s “Candidate Forum’’ only drew about 70 – and there was a free barbecue meal and dessert of- fered at that one. Political ads in the newspaper are good. Political flyers mailed to your door tend to be a little more aggressive and inflamma- tory. In order to really get to know a candidate it’s best to visit with them in person, in my opinion. The candidates have been mak- ing themselves accessible this time around for the most part. Time is running out, but there’s still time to meet many of the local candidates before you cast your votes. Do so, if you can. In smaller communities like ours, it is not uncommon for lo- cal elections to be determined by one or two votes sometimes. The notion that every vote Reg. Sale counts is true.
