Letter: 'Utah, I ask that you consider carefully the direction that Lee and McMullin would encourage our country, our people.'
I am writing to ask that you give serious consideration to the race between Evan McMullin and Sen. Mike Lee. I am not a Utah resident but the result of this election will impact me almost as much as if I were, just as the results of all federal elections and some state elections impact all of us, regardless of where we actually live.
I am an independent voter and am thoroughly disgusted, and quite frankly frightened, by the behavior of both parties who continue to put their self-serving allegiance to party ahead of their obligations to the American people. The unashamed lack of integrity prevalent among too many of those who design and define the path our country takes is sobering and, again, frightening. Indeed, the very concepts of shame, honor, and integrity are falling by the wayside.
We will always have our differences. And we have centuries of sins to atone for, hatred, racism, exclusion. The history of our nation does indeed have shameful periods, some of which have endured and enlarged into the current day.
Utah, I ask that you consider carefully the direction that Lee and McMullin would encourage our country, our people. If honor and integrity still mean something, if they are still attributes of a successful nation, then please vote for Evan McMullin.
