Building A Bridge To The 19th Century

Building A Bridge To The 19th Century



And you though we here at John Deeth Blog had lost the trail of the All Important Amish Vote story:



"'Yup, we voted this time,' said an elder Old Order Amish man approached at his home-based quilt shop on Route 340. He had a beard that straggled down to his chest and bright blue eyes. His first name, he said, is Amos, but in keeping with the Amish edict against calling attention to oneself, he would not give his last name.



'I didn't vote for the last 30 years,' he said, puffing on a pipe. 'But Bush seemed to have our Christian principles.'"



Republicans registered more than 300 new voters in each of three mostly Amish districts. In Leacock Township, the GOP nearly doubled its voter rolls, from 1,000 to 1,800, with all but a handful of the new voters being Amish or Mennonite.
