You have an incredible opportunity to make a difference before Tuesday’s election. If you love God and love people, I hope you’ll seize it.
California’s June 5 primary election is expected to have a very low turnout – perhaps only a third of registered voters will actually vote by the time the polls close.
This is good news for moral conservatives. Because you care deeply for moral values in government, and because you know others with moral standards, you can turn out more votes for righteousness and make a mathematical difference that may be the winning difference.
So please take quick action. Go to the candidates’ websites and study their positions on issues. Use SaveCalifornia.com’s Election Center to do more research. Then, write up your voting recommendations with brief explanations.
Next, get your value-based recommendations to other moral conservatives. Send an email or Facebook or Twitter message to all your friends. If you’re part of a church and see this in time, make lots of copies of your recommendations. Then, on Sunday morning, either pass them out by hand or place on car windows.
A very effective way to get people out to vote is to pull out your church directory, and call every household. Encourage them to vote, to offer them your recommendations, answer their questions, and even offer a ride to their polling place, if needed. This get-out-the-vote activity is truly good work for God’s values and for people’s benefit.
Moral conservatives don’t need to be like liberal activists, who pretend to be dead people and multiply votes illegally. No, you can multiply righteous votes by encouraging professing moral conservatives or professing Christians to vote for their values because you’re helping them and telling them every vote is needed.
When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice;
But when a wicked man rules, the people groan.
Proverbs 29:2 NKJV
“The Church must take right ground to politics… The time has come for Christians to vote for honest men, and take consistent ground in politics or the Lord will curse them…God cannot sustain this free and blessed country, which we love and pray for, unless the church will take right ground. Politics are a part of religion in such a country as this, and Christians must do this duty to their country as part of this duty to God…God will bless or curse this nation according to the course Christians take in politics.”
Rev. Charles Finney (1792-1875), a famous American minister and revivalist of the Second Great Awakening
