To the editor:

The easiest way to kill a democracy, which is best nurtured when all the people of an electorate have good information about the issues and representatives they are voting for, is to suspend publishing the voter’s guide that is mailed to everyone at election time. This is what our Island County commissioners have decided; this is a most wrong choice.
