Letter To The Editor: Character, Thoughtfulness And Ideas Count – Money Should Not
In the wake of the election, we’ve been reflecting on a topic that is close to the hearts of members of the League of Women Voters and others: the corruption of political discourse by money. The League was founded in 1920 when women got the vote. Since then, its mission has been to educate voters.
