Imperial Valley Candidate Voter Guide
Believers are called to be salt in their communities, preserving what is good and guarding against evil. It is therefore the responsibility of every Christian to think Biblically about the issues facing their community, and to steward their privileges and responsibilities as citizens.
This guide provides the body of Christ in the Imperial Valley with additional information to make these decisions wisely.
All candidates in the Imperial Valley who made their contact information public when filing to run were invited to participate. Failure to respond should not necessarily be considered agreement or disagreement with any of the questions asked.
