Election Day Brings The Opportunity To Vote Like A Motorcyclist
With Election Day less than a week
away, the American Motorcyclist Association is urging everyone to
"Vote Like A Motorcyclist" this year.
"Elections are the voting public's opportunity to select their
leaders -- leaders who will make laws that may expand or limit the
riding community's freedoms for years to come," said Wayne Allard,
AMA vice president of government relations. "It is critical for
motorcyclists to identify motorcycle-friendly candidates, assist
their run for office, and vote for them on Nov. 4."
The American Motorcyclist Association is a nonpartisan organization
and does not endorse political candidates. However, the AMA
encourages everyone to vote and urges riders to cast their ballots
based on candidates' positions on motorcycling-related issues, as
well as other issues of importance to them.
The AMA Vote Like A Motorcyclist campaign offers useful tools for
all voters at
www.americanmotorcyclist.com/Rights/GetInvolved/ElectMotorcycleFriendlyCandidates.aspx.
