SIX- Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday. October 24, 1990 Letters to the Editor A1 Mobley, a solid conservative To the Editor: Should conservatives waste their vote on a liberal? If they vote for Mobley would they end up electing liberal Barbara Roberts for governor instead of liberal Dave Frohnmayer? I voted for Ronald Reagan, George Bush and Vic Atiyeh. I will not be voting for Frohnmayer. On conservative issues (such as bring ing common sense to LCDC, etc.) there isn’t much difference between Roberts and Frohnmayer. Frohnmayer has said he would sign "gay rights" bills that pass his desk. He also told the Eugene Register Guard (May 14, 1990) that although he is disquieted by conve nience and sex selection abortions he would do nothing to stop them. Craig DeMo, one of several Christian lobbyists, sent letters to pastors around the state asking them to not support Independent A1 Mobley. DeMo’s own board did not endorse his action. He spoke for him self—out o f fear. Fear of Roberts. One of those fears, fear she would hurt home schoolers, was discredited during the Eugene debate when she said she supports the rights of home schoolers. Yes, there'a s chance a vote for Mobley might help elect Barbara Roberts to governor. However, no Order your self-inking stamp from the Gazette-Times 676-9228, Heppner Democrat governor has been re elected in this century. There is no guarantee she would be re-elected. Just maybe next time around the Republicans would put up a can didate we could all get behind so we would not have to vote for the lesser of two evils. If conservative Democrats and Republicans stick together and vote for Mobley we could elect an In dependent for governor. Oregonians elected an Independent for governor in the 1930’s and we can do it again in 1990. Don’t waste your conservative vote on a liberal. Vote for A1 Mobley for governor.
