Accept that Iowans spoke with their votes

This letter is for all the liberals, many in Johnson County, who can't believe there are other citizens in Iowa who don't believe in their agenda.
We still have 99 counties in Iowa and all of them need to be heard in Des Moines. During the last election, we were heard from and the majority of us didn't like being told by three judges that they know what we need. For all of you who write letters saying you got railroaded, listen up. In my math, 531,000 “no” votes beats your 446,000 “yes” votes. So, so just deal with it.
