Why vote Republican?

To the Editor:
I am writing in response to A. Volpe’s letter on page 8 of the Wednesday, Sept 26 Bulletin.
Why vote Republican? Reply: there is a Judgment Day. And no Christian can vote for a Democrat. Democrats are for abortion and same sex marriage. Thou shall not kill, and marriage is between one man and one woman. Four years ago to the day under Bush, the average gas price was $1.84 per gallon.
I believe in God. There will be a Judgment Day. By God’s word, there is no way, no how I could vote Democrat on this and be a Christian.
May God have mercy on me, a sinner. I am in no way perfect. But anyone can see that we need a change. God will hold us accountable for what we vote for.
There will be a Judgment Day, and with God, you cannot lose. I can do nothing without God. But with God, I can do anything. May God bless America again. I believe in God.
Can God depend on you? Vote on His word.
Thank you, and thank God.  Believe in God’s instructions.
– H. Johnson, Tryon
