Motto: The League of Women Voters believes that democracy can work only when voters are able to base their decisions on facts and full information.
The Corvallis League of Women Voters (LWV) will hold a "forum" on "YES on 66 and 67" tomorrow, January 13th, at the Corvallis-Benton County Public Library in the main meeting room from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. They promise "Learn the Facts about Measures 66 & 67" in their "handout. Apparently, there are no facts they want you to learn on the "NO on 66 & 67" side of the argument from anyone representing the 'No' side. So what happened to that "...full information" part of their motto? These community representatives will present the facts: Katherine Cleland (D), Sara Gesler[sic] (D), Annabelle Jaramillo (D), Jock Mills (?) and Anne Schuster (D). Former state representative, Tony Van Vliet (former Republican now an Independent) will serve as the Panel Moderator. The panel is certainly stacked with Democrats. Let's hope that Mr. Van Vliet shows fairness during the Q&A section of the program. He's always been known as a fair man.
The Benton County Republicans and Benton County Republican Women recommend a "NO VOTE" on Measures 66 & 67. Please vote early & help pass out "NO on 66 & 67" literature at the Library from 6:15pm to 7:15pm on Wednesday the 13th.
