who to vote for in primary

(1/3) > >>

depserv:
I just opened my absentee ballot and since position on the 2nd Amendment is a good litmus test for distinguishing between a loyal American and a traitor, I'd like to know if anyone here knows which of the following would be the best candidate from our perspective.  I don't want another phony Republican piece of liberal trash like my current state senator, Kathy Campbell.  Here are the names on my ballot:

Legislature:
Leslie Spry
David D Tagart
Suzanne Geist
Jim Gordon
Dale Michels

State board of Education:
Bob Rauner
Stephanie Bohlke-Schulte
Patricia A Koch Johns

NRD:
Dennis Frank Macek
Paul Morrison
Larry Hall

Jeff Fortenberry is the only name on the ballot for Congress and that's fine with me

I'd like to send an email to the state Republican Party explaining the importance in keeping liberal trash RINOs from getting nominated and reminding them that trash of their ilk is the reason so many patriot voters have lost faith in the Party.  Who would be the best person or persons to address my email to, and does anyone have their email address?

There is also a bond issue on the ballot for stormwater runoff; I usually just vote against any bond issue: they squander enough money they should be able to find what they need somewhere else.   

Thanks

At this point the NFOA-PAF has not made an endorsement in LD25, we have received one questionnaire reply from David D Tagart. We would appreciate any feedback you can give us about the Legislative candidates in your district.

I don't know about his gun control position, but I believe Dale Michaels would be a very strong conservative on the legislature.  He is a respected physician, family man, and leadership figure in his church.  I heard him interviewed on KLIN radio station and was impressed with his eloquence and intelligence when he was quizzed on issues involving assisted suicide, medical marijuana, and the other types of issues that you would expect they would ask a physician.  They did not get into issues of gun control, but I think he would be very approachable and amenable if NFOA member constituents approached him.

I contacted one of the candidates, Leslie Spry, and asked a few questions.  I'm copying and pasting the part of his response that is pertinent to this forum.  I hope we can do better than this guy, though we could certainly do worse.  I'll look for contact information for the other ones too, when I get time.

I am not a member of the National Rifle Association.
I do support the 2nd Amendment and am a gun owner.
I would support the registration of my fire arm and would support registration and background checks for newly purchased fire arms of all kinds.
I do not own an assault weapon and do not know what I would use it for, but for law-abiding citizens who would agree with registration, I would support your right to own such a weapon.
I believe that urban areas need to enforce local gun laws for the protection of citizens and law enforcement officers.  I do not think the State law should nullify local gun laws.
I would trust the judgement of local law enforcement personnel as to the need for local gun laws and their enforcement.
I am a Republican and am generally more conservative, especially on fiscal issues.
I come at most issues with my experience as a leader in the medical community and feel I want to see all Nebraskans be prosperous and successful.  I want government to be efficient and cost effective in the delivery of services to the citizens of Nebraska.
 
Regards,
Les


Leslie Spry MD FACP FASN FNKF
Candidate for Nebraska Legislature, District 25
Lincoln Nephrology & Hypertension

I read that Les Spry's registration as a Republican is a fairly recent occurrence.  Evidently he has voted as a Democrat for 42 previous elections.
