====================================================================== From the HSLDA E-lert Service... ====================================================================== October 27, 2006 South Carolina -- Your Vote Crucial in Preserving Freedom Dear South Carolina HSLDA members and friends, Election time is fast approaching. This November 7 some state and federal officials are up for re-election. Who is elected will determine what freedoms you will keep and what freedoms you will lose. Exercising your right to vote is crucial. The voter guide described below will help you make informed decisions as you cast your vote. Remember statistics show approximately only 50% of eligible adults actually register to vote. In any given election only about 50% of registered voters vote (that is 25% of adults)! That means only takes about 13% of adults to elect any given candidate. Your vote does count! Also remember that the general election ballot will include a very important proposed amendment to the South Carolina Constitution. Voters will be asked to approve a constitutional amendment to define marriage between one man and one woman as the only lawful domestic union. Requested Action: Download the Palmetto Family Council's Voter Guide for the 2006 Election at http://www.hslda.org/elink.asp?id=3431 . If you have not yet used a voter's guide, you'll be pleased with how easy it is to decide who to vote for by answering the same questions submitted to the candidates and comparing your answers to theirs. Please help spread the word about this new resource for responsible citizenship! Forward this message to your family and friends in South Carolina so they can also utilize this valuable resource. For a legal perspective on what activities churches and pastors are allowed to take part in, check out these resources prepared by attorney James Bopp: Do's and Don'ts for Political Activities of Pastors: http://www.hslda.org/elink.asp?id=3379 and Guidelines for Political Activities by Churches and Pastors: http://www.hslda.org/elink.asp?id=3380. Sincerely, Chris Klicka Senior Counsel ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -> Have you ever yelled into the wind, only to hear the sound of your voice blown back at you? It's hard to be heard in the midst of a storm. Trying to influence federal legislation is much like yelling to be heard while standing in a fierce wind. Yet when 80,000 voices join together, they become a powerful force that cannot be drowned out. Join HSLDA to be heard above the tempests that threaten homeschool freedoms.
