Thank you for printing Gary Obermeyer’s Dec. 8 clear and thoughtful letter regarding the misleading article on the voters' ID ballot you wrote about on Dec 1, 2025.
Your commitment to truth, accuracy, and protecting every person’s access to the ballot is deeply appreciated. In a time when fear-based narratives can spread so quickly, Gary’s careful explanation of the existing safeguards and the real impact this initiative would have on everyday voters helps ground our community in facts rather than rhetoric.
This type of clarity reminds us that democracy works best when we widen the circle, not shrink it. Your public voice strengthens the conversation and encourages all of us to stay engaged, informed, and committed to fair access for every voter.
