What business do we have telling people who to vote for? They probably know more about it than we do.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Corporations serve an important purpose, but telling people how to vote isn't one of them.
Voters tell politicians what they want through the ballot box. Constantly second-guessing them by speculating whether the parties should gang up on each other misses the point.
A lot of politicians say they want to get people out to vote; sometimes you can't totally believe they really want that.
We have just been working hard to have people to come out to vote and to make sure people understand how important the election is.
What I try to do is tell my constituents that this is what I believe and this is why I made that vote. And I think that that makes more sense to people generally than trying to triangulate some political position.
We are just interested in dealing with the people we're paying every day. We know federal law allows them to vote in a union at anytime, but we think we can resist that by talking to our own people and giving them enough upside.
As we have always seen here in the U.S. the universal truth about elections is that people vote their pocketbook.
Everybody is looking for an election where they can do something and participate.
I feel a real responsibility to my community and so right now there has been this bizarre myth in our community how our vote doesn't count. I'm trying to get out there and re-educate on how the government works and break that myth and talk about the importance of being involved.
What is politics but persuading the public to vote for this and support that and endure these for the promise of those?
