"Sheriff, how can you endorse more than one candidate for Governor?"
Well friend, it's easy, see...I'm an American π
An endorsement isn't a blood oath. I'm not adopting them, not naming them heir to my cattle, not handing them the keys to my beloved ancient 4 Runner π
An endorsement just means I've spent time with someone and concluded they're a decent human being who appears capable of doing the job. There it is.
Now, traditionally, politicians treat endorsements like they're picking a spouse. "This is THE ONE. My soulmate, muh ride or die." Then six months later they're endorsing somebody else and pretending the first one never existed.
I prefer a simpler approach. If I meet three people running for Governor and all three strike me as intelligent, honest, hardworking Kansans, I'm not going to suddenly start lying and pretend two of them are goblins, can you dig it? Word!
Kansas isn't a reality dating show. We don't have to throw everyone off the island until one person gets the final rose. Frankly, if we spent half as much time evaluating character as we do arguing over party labels, we'd all be a lot better off.
An endorsement means, "I believe this person is worthy of your consideration." That's all. The actual decision belongs to YOU, the voters. My job is to tell you what I've seen. Your job is to decide what to do with it. I will never EVER tell you what to do, who to vote for or what to think, never ever, I'll just never BS you π€
I warmly encourage all Kansans to learn more about and meet, Philip Sarnecki For Governor, Cindy Holscher for Kansas & Stacy Rogers for Kansas
