Loge thinks before he votes

Dear Editor,

"Attention Sanders County Republicans."

Thus is headlined an ad published in the Ledger recently from a “concerned Montana citizen” from Winifred, Montana. I’m not sure why Sanders voters need to be instructed by someone from Winifred, but in politics, I guess stranger things have happened.

The ad attacks Republican Legislator Denley Loge, accusing him of being a Democrat-in-disguise because in 610 votes, he voted with Democrats 196 times, approximately 32%. This and other assertions make the ad full of logical holes. Suffice it to say, all these numbers prove is that Loge thinks before he votes. I think that’s a priceless attribute.

I don’t know Mr. Loge personally. I’ve met him once for perhaps five minutes. As with any candidate, voters take their chances. But this attack on him makes me more confident that supporting him is the right choice.

Ron Rude,
