Requesting Loved Ones Not Vote For Hillary in Obituaries Is Becoming A Thing

Hillary Clinton is so unpopular among some older voters that their last dying wish, literally, is that their loved ones do not vote for the former secretary of state.

Since Hillary launched her campaign, at least three people have requested in their obituaries that in lieu of flowers, their loved ones give their vote to anyone but Hillary on Election Day.

The Washington Free Beacon reports:

An Arkansas man has requested in his obituary that loved ones do not vote for Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election, making him at least the third individual to do so since Clinton launched her campaign in April.

The obituary for Richard Buckman of Beebe, Ark., reads, “In lieu of flowers, please do not vote for Hillary,” mirroring text that was included in a recent obituary for a deceased New Jersey woman.

Buckman died on Aug. 22 at the age of 75, three days after news broke that the obituary for 63-year-old Elaine Fyrdrych of Gloucester Township, N.J., advised funeral goers, “Elaine requests, ‘In lieu of flowers, please do not vote for Hillary Clinton.’”

Indeed, such requests have become something of a trend. The obituary for a 81-year-old North Carolina man who died the day after Clinton launched her presidential campaign also asked loved ones to refrain from voting for the Democratic presidential candidate.

“The family respectfully asks that you do not vote for Hillary Clinton in 2016,” the obituary for Larry Darrell Upright read.

These individuals aren’t alone in their feelings about voting for Clinton. According to a recent poll, 60 percent of registered voters in the 50 and above age group have an unfavorable opinion of her, while 39 percent have a favorable opinion.

The trouble is, once the DNC finds out these people are deceased, someone will cast the their votes for the Nazi Lesbo who said she is going to stand against “good people” being gunned down except for Christopher Stevens, Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty. She was probably passed out when they were murdered.

FWF, this is a grave concern of mine, as well.

If this type of thing gets legs, you can bet the newspapers will be under strict orders not to accommodate their wished. The reason? Hate speech.

-OR=

Anyone who does that will have their estate taxed an additional 50% and payable to the Hillary! PAC.

I imagine for many of them, their dying wish is to be removed from the voting rolls so they don't vote for Hillary.

“Hillary Clinton is so unpopular among some older voters that their last dying wish, literally, is that their loved ones do not vote for the former secretary of state.”

Unfortunately, the dearly departed will probably be voting for Hillary and her ilk well into the end of the 21st Century.

True story.

Ted Kennedy was on a stumping tour for some rotten TX democrat governor and he was at a nursing home. He began to speak and the microphone did not work. One of the oldsters had unplugged it. They replugged back it in and all the residents began to bang their silverware and fists on the tables and did not let Kennedy speak. That democrat TX governor lost that election.

Another true story.

A friend of mine used to manage an apartment with lots of seniors citizens back in the early 90s. An ambulance was called to an apartment to help an old lady. The medics began to question her like they need to as to determine mental awareness.

First question: Do you know what day it is? She didn't know.

Second question: Do you know what year it is? She didn't know.

Third question: Do you know who the president is? And she answered:

"I HATE him." Referring of course to Bill Clinton.

She didn't know where she was or the time of day but she knew she hated Bill Clinton.
