Bishop urges Catholics to put Christianity before party in midterm elections
“As citizens of this great country, we have the ability to vote and engage in civic life,” Fabre-Jeune said Nov. 2. “It is a blessing that we can actively live our faith and a moral obligation to vote for those that defend the right to practice it.”
The bishop also mentions the importance of Catholics forming consciences before voting, and weighing each candidate’s stance “on the moral hierarchy of issues.”
“We must elect lawmakers who uphold and promote the common good, reject intrinsically evil acts, and protect the weak, undeserved, and vulnerable,” Fabre-Jeune said.
“We do not vote from social pressure or selfishness, but from a well-formed conscience. We vote for love of one another which flows from God, the creator and giver of life,” he added. “Let us pray for our state and nation as we seek the intercession of the patroness of South Carolina, Our Lady of Joyful Hope.”

Well if you are pro abortion, gay marriage and grooming of children, vote Dem!
I just saw that that the Dems have spent $320 million in ads promoting abortion on demand, 10 times more than ads on crime and the economy. Just want the bishops and priests who vote Dem that they are abortion enablers!
