At this time we also vote to retain local judges or to release them from their duties. School board initiative are also on the ballot as well as local health care bills. Various political parties support these initiatives and each have their own agenda. Whether you agree with a political party or not, vote your conscious and make the effort to participate in your own destiny.

George Washington was a member of what political party? Republican, Tory, Whig? None, really, because political parties were just developing during his

Republicans. This is the predecessor to the current Democratic Party. Other early parties included the Populist Party, also known as the “People’s Party”; the
Socialist Party; the Anti-Masonic Party; and the Whig Party. Abraham Lincoln was a Whig until the party fell apart in 1856. The pro-slavery Whigs became
Democrats, while the anti-slavery Whigs went with the newly formed Republican Party. Since 1860, the current format of Republican and Democratic parties
has been the norm. Continue reading →
