Election Day impacts...

To everyone that voted Tuesday, thank you. You truly made a difference.

As an elected local official, I am a registered Republican. I would prefer to be an Independent. However, to me, elections aren't about Republican or Democrat. I vote for the individual: and one of my priorities is to ensure the candidate is gun friendly. So forget about who "controls" Congress. The bigger issue is that the Republicans can direct Congressional approval of Federal judges, especially Supreme Court justices for the next two years. We no longer need to spend sleepless nights with nightmares of Eric Holder sitting on the Supreme Court.

This Election Day also took a few notches out of Hillary Clinton as more than 30 of her endorsed Democrats she and Willy campaigned for were defeated. Maybe now, someone can start asking her for some answers and accountability. Time will tell.

The point of this ramble is that it was a good day for lawful gun owners. The Republican sweep is a good thing for us. The tide of legal right to carry and gun ownership can continue for the next two years. We still need to be vigilant, but the next two years should be a bit easier.
