LETTER: Other Options

Some people are looking forward to voting for Donald Trump in November and honestly believe he is a great candidate. Some people are looking forward to voting for Joe Biden in November, though I haven’t met anyone who honestly believes he’s a great candidate. But the majority of potential voters are dissatisfied with both of these candidates, and it’s come to my attention that there are readers of this paper who don’t yet know about Jo Jorgensen.

Dr. Jo Jorgensen is the candidate for the Libertarian party. She is a professor of psychology at Clemson University in Greenville, South Carolina. Before her current position, she was a businesswoman, and has managed both a software company and a business consulting company. Jo Jorgensen is married and has two daughters. While raising her girls, she took a hiatus from her careers. She now has a grandson as well.

Jo is against the war on drugs and wants to reform the prison system, including ending incarcerations of those who have been convicted of victimless crimes. She wants to end foreign wars and involvement and bring the troops home. She stands for small government and wants to decrease the national debt by decreasing government spending.

Jo Jorgensen’s plan for healthcare is to reduce bureaucracy and support competition within the healthcare market so that Americans can find the health services that are right for them at an affordable price. The goal is to model our healthcare after Singapore and our foreign policy after Switzerland.

Some believe voting third party is wasting a vote: voting for someone who won’t win. But 65 million people wasted their votes on Hillary Clinton in 2016. I urge everyone to vote for someone they actually want to see in office, whoever that may be. Even if your candidate doesn’t win, the numbers will show the sort of candidate the people actually want.
