Letter to Editor | Some may have already wasted their vote

— from Margot Shaw —

We have all received the very important Presidential Primary ballot. Listed are 13  Democratic candidates for our consideration.

We’d like to point out that, even though their names are on the ballot, the following have dropped out:  Michael Bennet, Cory Booker, John Delaney, Deval Patrick, Andrew Yang.  Voting for one of them would only waste your vote. Although Tulsi Gabbard and Tom Steyer did not qualify for Wednesday’s debate, they are still in the race.

We have this suggestion from David Turnoy:  ” I haven’t heard anything about anyone else dropping out; I think that will happen after Super Tuesday, which is a week before our ballots are due.  So if you are supporting someone who is questionable about staying in the race, you might want to hold onto your ballot for now.” Good advice.
