GOAL:

To HELP the BUSY CONSERVATIVE VOTER, who DOESN’T have the time to do the research, but who cares about voting their CONSERVATIVE CONVICTIONS. Most voters don’t need help at the TOP of the BALLOT, but most often DO need help for less publicized offices, like Judges, City Councils, School Boards, along w/ the sometimes complicated PROPOSITIONS and CITY MEASURES.

CRITERIA:

I use the below CRITERIA, in making ballot recommendation. IF YOU AGREE WITH MY CRITERIA, YOU WILL PROBABLY LIKE MY CHOICES.
RESEARCH DONE FROM CONSERVATIVE/BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW PERSPECTIVE (fiscal & social), looking for candidates/issues that BEST provide support for:

-SECURE & SEAL OUR BORDERS

-CONTROLLED “LEGAL” IMMIGRATION for a STRONG AMERICA

-LIMITED GOVERNMENT

-STRONG MILITARY & NATIONAL DEFENSE

-SUPPORT AMERICA ENERGY INDEPENDENCE

-PRO-”AMERICAN FIRST” AGENDA (ie, a strong USA SUPER-POWER means a MORE PEACEFUL WORLD)

-PRO-PROTECTIONS for ALL AMERICAN CITIZENS, NO MATTER RACE, COLOR, RELIGION, OR SEXUAL PREFERENCE. NO DISCRIMINATION.

-PRO-PERSONAL FREEDOMS

-PRO-1st AMENDMENT (FREE SPEECH)

-PRO-PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITIES

-PRO-FREEDOM of RELIGION (w/the Christian, Jewish and other Religions becoming under greater attacks)

-PRO-PARENTAL RIGHTS in EDUCATION

-PRO-LIFE & PROTECTIONS for the UNBORN

-PRO-SANCTITY of HETEROSEXUAL MARRIAGE

-PRO-NUCLEAR FAMILY

-PRO-2ND AMENDMENT (RIGHT to BEAR ARMS/GUNS)

-PRO-BUSINESS w/FEWER GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS

-SUPPORT FOR ISRAEL and IT’S RIGHT to EXIST

-EDUCATIONAL CHOICE/SUPPORT for VOUCHERS

-PRO-PROPERTY RIGHTS w/LIMITED “EMINENT DOMAIN”

-STRONG ADHERENCE TO CONSTITUTION

-VIABILITY OF A CANDIDATE (Do they have a chance to win?)

FOR WHAT PARTIES DO I RECOMMEND?

REGRETFULLY, there are only 2 Party Platforms that support the CRITERIA above, the REPUBLICAN Party and the AMERICAN INDEPENDENT Party. But unfortunately, the AMERICAN INDEPENDENT Party is not a VIABLE Party. The platforms of the DEMOCRAT Party and others are entirely UNACCEPTABLE.

HOW IS INFORMATION GATHERED?

The selections are made from group forums, personal knowledge, interviews, on-line research, questionnaires sent, various outside vote guides, candidate endorsements, voting records, candidate statements, testimonies of reliable secondary sources, and various news media. These days, I also verify the amount of money a candidate has to run an effective campaign.

THIS SITE WILL BE AVAILABLE AT EVERY ELECTION

(Lord willing!) I will post “as I go” and should be finished AT LEAST 2, but usually, 3 or 4 weeks before an election. However, I do updates, and add details/comments right up to an election.
