I am writing this letter to the editor to show my support for the Wyandot County Council on Aging. My family utilized its transportation services for medical care. It was such a relief to have a wheelchair-accessible van to transport Glen VanHorn to dialysis and for cancer treatments in his own wheelchair.

I am taking this opportunity to encourage all Ohio residents to vote no on Ohio Issue 1. The attempt to pass Issue 1 is being financed by out of state billionaires such as George Soros and Mark Zuckerberg.

Nov. 6 will find the citizens of this state facing the decision of whether to adopt proposed Issue 1 as an amendment to the Ohio Constitution. As legal professionals, we are mindful of and wish to share with the citizens of Wyandot County our grave concerns about some of the dangers Issue 1 presents to our community and the state of Ohio.

October may be dominated by falling leaves and Halloween, but it’s also Adopt a Shelter Dog Month. Across the country, shelter dogs are looking for warm homes with owners who can provide loving care.

Dear editor, The same Ohio Constitution that guarantees freedom of the press, speech and religion also will guarantee the freedom to use illegal, mind-altering drugs with minimal consequences if State Issue 1 passes.

Dear editor, The Seneca County Opiate Task Force firmly opposes the proposed Ohio Issue 1, Neighborhood Safety, Drug Treatment and Rehabilitation Amendment on the November’s ballot.

I would like to respond to the letter written by Ken Lortz that appeared in The Daily Chief-Union on Sept. 8. I agree with Lortz that we should check out all the candidates before we vote for honesty, integrity and character, etc.

I grew up in Wyandot County, graduating from Upper Sandusky High School in 1967. I now live in Maumee. Wyandot County and Maumee are represented by the same U.S. Congressman, Bob Latta.

As a lifelong Republican, I regularly have voted for our outstanding candidates running for office. But I cannot support Bob Latta. When Latta voted to replace Obamacare, knowing the Congressional Budget Office forecast a 25 percent increase for individuals, including agriculture and small business, I was angry.

I have been looking forward to fall — for cooler temperatures and for cooler heads to prevail! We have a chance to elect members to Congress who will fight for our ailing democracy instead of meekly voting the party line and hiding from constituents who have legitimate questions and real concerns.
