Letter: Vote for Marshall Rawson

Letter to the editor

My name is Shannon Boal, I live in Waldo, and I have been a registered voter in Alachua County since 1973. I registered as a Democrat, mostly because I thought then-Florida Governor Claude Kirk and U.S. President Richard Nixon (both Republicans) were jerks. I was wrong about Claude Kirk. 

I have voted for Democratic candidates that I loved, like Governor Lawton “Walkin’ Lawton” Chiles. Mostly, I vote against bad candidates, not for good ones.

A few days ago, I answered my door to a candidate, and we talked a lot. He was walking all over Waldo in the heat to talk to people. His name is Marshall Rawson, and he is running for the Republican nomination for Florida State House District 10. 

To be able to vote for him, I have changed my voting registration to Republican. It has been so hard to find a Democrat to vote for!

Shannon Boal, Waldo
