Today is Election Day. Polls are open from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. in New York and 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. in New Jersey and Connecticut.
Americans today make a fateful choice: Will they continue down the path to terminal indebtedness and endless economic decay — or will they try something different, something more hopeful? Will they vote for Mitt Romney? We hope so.
FOR PRESIDENT: MITT ROMNEY
There is essentially just one issue in this race: jobs — and President Obama’s failure to produce them. Romney’s background as a successful businessman will bring the leadership America needs to ignite the economy and confront dire challenges abroad.
FOR US SENATE (NY): WENDY LONG
New York deserves better than incumbent Democrat Kirsten Gillibrand, who turned her back on her comparatively moderate House record to become a full-fledged, knee-jerk left-liberal. Long is a serious contender — and far superior on the issues.
FOR US SENATE (CONN.): LINDA McMAHON
A successful businesswoman, McMahon’s mix of economic conservatism and socially moderate positions makes her far more preferable than conventionally liberal Democratic Rep. Chris Murphy.
FOR US SENATE (NJ): JOE KYRILLOS
A state senator and close ally of Gov. Chris Christie, Kyrillos wants lower taxes and less government spending. He faces Sen. Bob Menendez, a cookie-cutter Democrat haunted by ethical questions.
Superstorm Sandy and redistricting may have caused polling places to change.
