Sadie has decided not to vote in the election this time around. Although she’s old enough to vote, being around 29 in human years, Sadie is just not sure about any of the candidates. She feels like none of the issues mattering to her were addressed at all.<\/div>\n

Sadie also says she has a problem with immigration. How can we take care of pets from other countries when we have so many pets looking for homes that were born in the USA? She does sympathize with animals from other nations and thinks we should send more foreign aid money to help with spay and neuter programs in less fortunate places.<\/p>\n

Animal cruelty is also a big issue that none of the candidates discussed. Sadie thinks there should be federal laws making cruelty to animals a felony, instead of letting the individual states determine the crime and punishment.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Since not a single one of these issues were discussed by the candidates, Sadie has told me to vote for whomever I prefer.<\/div>\n
\u00a0While not endorsing any of the candidates,\u00a0Sadie says that Hillary Clinton does get bonus points for living with two poodle mix dogs (and a lab).<\/div>\n
