As I’ve written before, when I first came to the Bulletin, I was approached by multiple parties requesting the return of the locally submitted political columns. I was able to do so in a way that pleased both readers and my superiors. At this moment, the local parties are not submitting weekly, on-time columns at the same rate. Thus, the Bulletin has decided to remove bylines labeling columns as Democrat or Republican. We will still strive to have a fair, balanced page with a variety of content for your perusal or pass-over. As always, nothing on this page is endorsed and no topics are assigned to anyone. What the Bulletin does endorse is the space for community discussion. If you’d like to submit yourself for publication consideration, contact editor@banderabulletin.com. Thank you very much for your readership. Stay cool.

Read moreOur country was formed on the premise of a democracy where all citizens would be able to determine the laws by electing the people that would represent their views on relevant issues. I have considered myself an independent voter and tried to determine the best candidate that was honest and would reflect my view point on issues that would promote programs that would benefit all citizens. I have voted for both Republican and Democratic candidates based on my evaluation that they would be the best representative.
