Vote ‘no’ for sales tax
I would like to suggest that our residents vote “no” for the 2024 sales tax as there isn’t accountability for past projects that should have been completed. Not only not completed but still in the design stage! Flagrant violations of procurement code and not being transparent with the spending. Vote “No for Sales Tax!” You must scroll down after voting for the national election and you will see the referendum for the sales tax. Don’t be fooled again.

I’m sharing Dandridge’s article
Last week’s article by Larry Dandridge on Veterans Home Loans was so informative and well-written that I plan to share it with my many veteran customers. As a real estate professional, I find it hard to find a newspaper that supports our Marines, soldiers, sailors, Coast Guardsmen and women, and airmen and women as does The Island News.
I want you to know that I read your terrific newspaper every week, and I greatly appreciate your support of our military members, veterans, and their families.
Thank you.

Choose Harris over Trump
Donald Trump had four years to lead the United States and failed us by his own choosing. Whether it be in foreign policy or domestic policy, he did not protect the nation as commander in chief.
Trump talks a lot but doesn’t say much other than to hurl insults and make false statements.
Quality of life is not a business decision. But rather, it is a humane choice to be empathetic to those who cannot help themselves.
Kamala Harris has that empathy and is returning the United States to an era when we were respected internationally because of how we treat our citizens domestically.
This election is a clear choice between those who have never had it so good and those of us who know we can do better. Kamala Harris will lead us there.
We’ve had an African-American president before, and that worked out just fine.
Fellow citizens, exercise your right to vote to preserve your sacred heritage, promote your children’s future and obtain the blessings of liberty we all cherish.
To maintain a sense of decency in the United States, rise and vote! Our democracy is at stake.
