Your Beliefs
At Patch, we promise always to report the facts as objectively as possible and otherwise adhere to the principles of good journalism. However, we also acknowledge that true impartiality is impossible because human beings have beliefs. So in the spirit of simple honesty, our policy is to encourage our editors to reveal their beliefs to the extent they feel comfortable.  

Politics

I'll vote for whomever I believe will do the job best -- Democrat or Republican.

Religion

I attended a Lutheran school growing up. Now I consider myself more of a nondenominational Christian.
