Oct. 20, 2004 - Many Reasons Rural Communities Need to be Part of Election

When American citizens go to the polls November 2nd, voters will be deciding the direction of our government for the next four years.  That will mean a lot to people in rural communities, according to Jay Truitt, executive director of legislative affairs for the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association.  He says several issues are significant to people who live outside of urban areas.

 

Cut #1    :38       Outcue: "...have to speak out."

 

According to Truitt, states in the heart of the country will be key to the result of this election.

 

Cut #2    :23       Outcue: "...support of the President."

 

Truitt says Presidential elections are events to be looked forward to in this country.

 

Cut #3    :24       Outcue: "...who that individual is."

 

Individuals interested in getting more involved in the election than just voting in it, Truitt has a suggestion.

 

Cut #4    :28       Outcue: "...that are out there."

 

Those who will be in the field on Nov. 2 and not have a chance to get to the polls can go to the



NCBA... working to increase profit opportunities for cattle and beef producers by enhancing the business climate and building consumer demand.
