Letter to the editor: Can't vote Democrat due to abortion

Many of us have heard about the danger of voting based on one issue. However, when that issue is a matter of life and death, especially for the most innocent and vulnerable, then this “one issue” assumes overwhelming importance.

I am speaking about abortion on demand as permitted by the 1973 Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision. Because the Democratic platform endorses abortion on demand, I cannot vote for a Democratic candidate until they eradicate abortion as “health care” from their platform.

For those of you who think abortion is not killing a human life, do nothing and see what happens in about nine months.
