In order to help you make the best decisions possible about the presidential race and the various candidates for Congressional, statewide and state legislative races across the country, LifeNews.com has compiled this voter’s guide. At the bottom of this email is a handy way you can donate to us. We sure appreciate your help to keep pro-life news coming to you.
In this pro-life election guide, we list the information about candidates provided by various statewide pro-life organizations and national groups.
Please forward this voting guide to every pro-life friend, family member, church member and other person you can think of to help them vote pro-life. The lives of the unborn, the elderly, the disabled and others hang in the balance.
National Voting Information
*National Right to Life has an excellent one-page comparison piece on pro-abortion candidate Barack Obama and John McCain, who is pro-life on abortion. It also includes Sarah Palin and Joe Biden. The piece is also in black and white and Spanish. For more on McCain’s record, see also mccainprolife.org and visit stopobamainfo.org for more on Obama’s.
* For more on Senator John McCain, see a speech he gave, where he stands on federal judges. For more on Obama, read about his Born Alive votes, his desire to overturn pro-life laws, how he supports partial-birth abortion, or his record in general. Read more about Joe Biden‘s pro-abortion record, and the pro-life record of Sarah Palin.
* We also recommend the Family Research Council 2008 voting guide and American Family Association has a good state-by-state voting resources list. See also the Susan B. Anthony List pro-life women candidates.
* See how your members of Congress voted on pro-life issues the last two or more years by visiting the National Right to Life legislative scorecard.
* If you know of a resource to add to this voter’s guide, email LifeNews.com.
