Is being LGBTQ enough to earn your vote?
My answer to the question: “Is being LGBTQ enough to earn your vote?” is no. It’s the same answer I would give on whether just being Generation X, a millennial, a woman, or other minority, is enough to get my vote.
We need to know in detail what a candidate stands for, what they have done prior to running for the office they are seeking, and what they will do better than their opponents.
I often ask a candidate looking for my support, “What are the first three bills you will introduce if you win?” Then I ask what they think they can accomplish better than their opponents.
Voters should look at the entire field to decide who gets their vote. I am talking about a Democratic primary. In the general election, any Democrat is better than today’s Republicans.
