In The Salt Lake Tribune of Jan. 27 we were blessed with the wisdom of Jacob Anderegg, a Republican state senator from Lehi. He states that 80 percent of the people in his district voted against Prop. 3.
I would be embarrassed to admit that and still call myself a Christian. Apparently providing medical benefits to the poor and underprivileged is not part of the beliefs of the voters in Lehi.
Statewide, Prop 3 earned 53 percent of the vote. Anderegg dismissed that number because not all the people in the state voted. If we follow that thinking, our Legislature would be empty because 100 percent of the voters will never vote.
Thanks for letting us know, Jacob, that when you were elected, 100 percent of the people in Lehi voted.
