Two choices on Election Day

To the editor: Choice #1 — If you want to change America to a Socialist Communist country, you will vote Democratic. Choice #2 - If you love America and want to keep America Great again, you will vote Republican. The democratic party will have open borders, illegals crossing the borders by hundreds and thousands a month, high gas prices, six or seven dollars a gallon, buying oil from countries who hate us. You will have high crime in states run by democrats, abortion on demand and a big drug problem coming into the United States killing thousands a year. Inflation on things you ...

Vote for Mack

To the editor: I would like to remind everyone in New Ulm to vote on Nov. 8. And if you are a Ward 4 resident, vote for Larry Mack for city council. The Mack history in New Ulm runs deep. Peter Mack was one of the original settlers of New Ulm. He came to New Ulm in 1854 and was one of the few who stayed. Larry is all about what is best for New Ulm. He cares deeply about the community and wants it to grow and flourish. I know he will continue to bring integrity, boundless energy, and selfless dedication to the job as city councilor. Larry has always been a doer. He is kind, ...

Many reasons Lange deserves your vote

To the Editor: There are many reasons we need to reelect Sheriff Dave Lange. I’m a lifelong resident of Nicollet County. As a member of the Nicollet County Sheriff’s Posse I’ve gotten to know Sheriff Lange on a more personal level. I see in his dealings with others that he always treats them with respect and dignity. He’s always looking for the best for our county. While he wears many hats we deal with him mostly in his civic duties. For 16 years he’s hosted the Polar Plunge that has raised $1.2 Million for the Special Olympics. Every year he’s the first one to jump in. ...

Recommend Luepke for Nicollet Co. Commission

To the editor: I would like to recommend reelecting John Luepke for Nicollet County Commissioner. We recently had a County Drainage Ditch project cross our property on Swan Lake. John made numerous visits to the site, and was very informative and helpful with the project planning. At the end we had some road damage and drainage issues. John was very persuasive at the meetings that these issues be corrected. We were very satisfied with the end results. I was very impressed with John’s interest, concern, and follow-up. I highly recommend John Luepke be reelected. Ronny Cordes New Ulm

Vote for Sheriff Lange

To the editor: I would like to take the opportunity to express my support for Sheriff Dave Lange. I have recently moved to this beautiful state and Nicollet County, having worked in several states and Canada in my previous occupations. I have been a fire and medical professional as a full-time employee and currently volunteer with the Nicollet County Sheriff’s Posse. The culture with law enforcement over the last few years has really changed, regarding the view of the public as well as the feelings and thoughts inside the profession. Having gone through this evolution and now being a ...

Let’s talk about abortion

To the editor: It has become clear across our nation that the Democratic Party and its candidates prefer not to debate our nation’s main problems. They avoid discussing inflation, illegal aliens and the open border, high gas and food costs, rampant crime and calls to defund the police, students struggling in the classroom because of previous mandates and now pushing ideologies like CRT and transgender euphoria instead of teaching the basic subjects. Most of these problems are the result of democratic led policies. Democrat candidates are running scared, so they are using the ...
