Low voter turnout doesn't mean elections are pointless

I was appalled after reading your editorial "Get out the vote" (Sept. 15). While you are welcome to blame low voter turnout on anything you wish, when you refer to Baltimore's general election as pointless, a line has been crossed.

I shouldn't need to remind you that people have been fighting and dying in this country for more than 200 years for the right to hold free elections in a free society. To say make such a statement is shameful. You owe all veterans an apology.
