It's a little disturbing that the last few elections I've had to do a story such as this. But apparently, there are some local officials who try to tell or make people believe they know who they vote for. Apparently, this is a way to try to intimidate voters to vote a certain way.

Let me assure you, NO ONE and I mean NO ONE knows or will ever know who you vote for in any election. If some one tells you this, they're flatly lying to you. The only way anybody would ever know this information is, if you tell them.

Secrecy of the ballot is absolute in this country and county. No one need ever fear that an employer, a supervisor or coworker will know who they voted for.

Feel free to cast your vote for whomever you want with no fear of any repercussions from anyone.

This is America.
