It's un-American

This letter to the editor appeared in the Yakima Herald Republic on September 13, 2006.


To the editor — My hat is off to Walt Ranta of Yakima (Letters, Sept. 7), who can't abide the primary rule.

I voted for the nonpartisan positions only. If it is unconstitutional to vote for the candidate who is best qualified for the position, then the Constitution should be changed. To tell me who I can and can't vote for is not a democracy and it's not American.
