Conscience and Your Vote

Bishop John B. McCormack recently developed a document, “Conscience and Your Vote,” to assist others in understanding the nature of conscience and the moral obligation to vote and to outline Catholic social teaching on some of today’s pressing issues.The document is based on the shared faith and human understanding we possess as Catholics. This is not a “Voter Guide.” The Diocese of Manchester does not in any way endorse a particular candidate, political party, or political action committee.

A Message from Bishop McCormack Bishop John B. McCormack

Dear Friends in Christ:

On November 4, 2008, citizens of New Hampshire will have the right to vote for our state and congressional representatives and our new president. For Catholics, however, to vote it is not only a right but a moral duty. Becoming involved in political life is part of our baptismal commitment to follow Jesus Christ and bear Christian witness in all we do here on earth.
