I understand and appreciate all the pro-life questions, but really, shouldn’t we be paying much more attention to the threat of euthanasia than homosexual marriage? What does the latter have to do with the sanctity of human life?
In the candidates survey I believe for the following question I indicated ‘support’. I’d like that changed to ‘strongly support’ please.
Thanks
