Time to VOTE!!

If you live in Senate District 15 or Representative district 15b, the special elections are today. For myself, living in Senate District 15 (but not in 15b) the choice will be simple. (see the banner at the top of this blog). Dan the "Ox" Ochsner will do Senate District 15 proud. He is a common sense candidate, will have a great grasp of the issues going in. As the host of "Hot Talk with the Ox," far from just falling off the turnip truck, Ochsner has been doing his homework, researching issues and interviewing the movers and shakers that make the state work. He's been highly involved in civic volunteering, including being president of the St. Cloud Downtown Sertoma Club; Chairman of the St. Cloud Convention and Visitors Bureau Advisory Board; Board Member of the Central Division of Minnesota March of Dimes, United Way Corporate Campaign Coordinator, and a St. Cloud Chamber of Commerce Volunteer. And unlike his opponent, Ochsner operates firmly from a conservative philosophy, and is very strong in his views for less government, holding the line on and decreasing taxes, and in being pro-life (his opponent is pretty much for abortion on demand). Also, Ochsner supports bringing forth a measure that will pretty much put an end to needless special sessions. Ochsner's measure would bring economic penalties upon house members should their lollygagging go past the Constitutional deadline.

Make no mistake--what you will get with Tarryl Clark will be the radical element that has taken over the purse strings and the direction of the democrat party; which has on a national level openly spoken for abortion on demand (an an area of personal agreement that Clark doesn't go out of her way to broadcast--I wonder why???); more government, and a not so-subtle "strategy" that makes defeat in Iraq an actual goal.

Make it a point today to vote Ochsner for Minnesota Senate District 15.
