Letters to the Editor

Editor:

I would agree with the letter (March 31) that said people should vote for what is best for our country and not be influenced by a political party.

But the facts tell us otherwise. In our LW community, it has been estimated that of 10,000 residents, 6,955 are registered voters, according to the OC Registrar of Voters. So that leaves 3,045 people, or 31 percent of the LW population, who are not registered to vote.

I agree that the two major political parties do not agree on much. One wants to change our constitution, and one wants it to stay the same as it was signed originally.

One supports abortion, and the other does not. Only the Bible will give us the truth (word of God). Solution? Vote your church values. Who will you listen to?

It’s election time in Mutual 6. I understand candidates are passionate about serving their community, but should they be permitted to go door to door and hand out literature at their own whim? We have a vehicle established for them to submit their attributes.

I’m wondering if residents in other Mutuals are plagued with this invasion of their privacy.

My solution for these ambitious candidates is to offer an invitation in our newspaper for people to meet them at a designated place and time.

This would certainly solve the problem of a stranger with bad timing coming to our doors. Donna Sprow Mutual 6 Editor’s Note: According to Davis-Stirling HOA rules that govern LW, the community cannot prohibit members or residents from canvassing or petitioning members, the association’s board and residents. By GRF policy, candidates may purchase advertising space in the LW Weekly to campaign.
