A few signs around Westport message "Vote Blue". There are a few reasons NOT to Vote Blue.

• You support a government transformed as a one-party legislature and a governor who rules the state as fiefdom.

• The governor treats her constituents as subjects, not as citizens of a state within a constitutional republic.

• The governor signed a bill sanctioning infanticide, a heinous transgression against a human life.

• Nothing of consequence was accomplished during this term, yet the legislature spent $290 billion, asking for $2.65 billion more just this past week.

• Last year,  $44 billion of income producing individuals and families left the Commonwealth. Folks still leave at the rate of 380 people per day.

• The Commonwealth ranks 50th in job growth and production.

• The governor ignores a 70% vote requiring an audit of the legislature.

• Mismanagement of the state is excused blaming its problems on President Trump, who has nothing to do with the incompetence and lack of integrity in the legislature.

• Home rules are ignored, changing zoning by mandate.

• The solution is simple: November 3, vote for Mike Minogue for governor. Minogue has integrity and in-depth knowledge to represent the  Commonwealth.
