Keep the dirty politics out of it

Editor,

In the past few weeks I have noticed that the political rhetoric has turned to what we would call “dirty politics of name calling, etc.” 

I find this quite out of context given the nature of our Lake County. 

This might be condoned back east or in the Pacific time zone but please not here in our valley or Lake County. 

I believe each candidate should be judged not by the innuendo or word of mouth or printed advertisements, they should be judged or gauged by what they bring to the office they are seeking and working to get.

What experience do they bring with them?

What working knowledge do they have for the post they are seeking?

What do they know of the people they are asking to support them?

What do they believe they will bring or add to our wellbeing as a community?  

These are just a few pertinent questions that should be asked. These are the important questions that concern the citizens of Lake County.

Keep the dirty politics out of our decision-making and look at the candidates not by the party they belong to but what they will bring to us as citizens of Lake County.
