Right to work isn’t going to do it. It is the government unions that are the problem. The trade unions as simply drawing power from the government unions which operate as an arm of the Democrat Party. Unless we rein in the demands and negotiation rights of the public sector unions, this country will be a one party country.

The Republicans in WA State foolishly thought that if they supported the unions, the unions would support them. No matter how hard I tried to warn them, they just wouldn’t listen. Some of the Republicans in my county went so far as to appear on a stage with the union organizers to support a union issue, which the local environmental activists oppose. The Republicans told me that the unions were ready to vote Republican. Meanwhile, the unions were distributing pictures of the Republicans on the stage with the union organizers, laughing at them.

Don't disagree.

Was simply suggesting that Republican run states may be more likely to be right to work and generally support integrity at the polling place.

Maybe that isn't the case...

Very good point, but we have to offer a sound alternative or forget it! Kinda like the Dems pushing alternative energy to replace fossil fuels when it cannot even begin to replace it at this time if ever. Thinking right now about a project - go down each state, review the Congress and the Governor, review the last few election cycles of laws written and their effects. And then EDUCATE the American public on what worked in which states and what didn't. This USED to be how we operated. The states were allowed to experiment and then the working solutions could be copied.
