Over the last six weeks, we've been talking to voters about their concerns leading up to election day. The last stop on our Voters' Viewpoints series takes us to Riser Tavern on the Links in Columbiana County where the economy and immigration were common concerns.

"My biggest concern is all the people we've allowed into the country," Doug Haveox said. "We got to keep an eye on that. We got to stop that."

"The economy is huge," Vicki Stone says. "The border is huge, not necessarily directly with me, but with our country. Those are the things that need to be fixed."

"We need to get somebody in office that will actually lead the country, number one and then number two, somebody who is going to handle inflation," Mike Fetsko says. "That's the biggest problem I see here in the Valley, is people being able to live day-to-day, afford groceries as well as pay the bills"

Jim Peretti was enjoying dinner and drinks after a round of golf and says the taverns friendly crowd mirrors his optimism about American resilience.

"I'm just wanting everybody to kind of think like, everything's going to be all right," Peretti says. "I've been through a lot of elections. It's not life and death. I don't think like everyone thinks, you know, everything's going to be all right. Because, you know, the United States, we got checks and balances. Everything will work out. So, I don't want anyone to worry about anything."

When it comes to voting, Jim values balance in politics.

"I kind of vote towards which way, which party I think that the country should go," Peretti says. "If I think it's going too far, one way, I'll vote the other way. If I think it's going too far the other way, I'll vote this way. You know, I try to always bring it back to the center, because I think the center is what decides it, I really do."

His perspective is one of faith in the process, a sentiment Haveox also shares.

"I think we'll be okay because of who we are," Haveox says. "We're American. That's what we do. We make adjustments, if needed."

Many of the patrons though seemed to have "election fatigue" and is just ready to get this election over with.

"It's tit for tat right now, both parties have a lot of money that they're throwing at the television, as you know, and unfortunately, everybody, I think, is sick of it and they want to get by November 5," Fetsko says. "I think people are tired of the bickering and the division of country."

While Vicki Stone agrees, she isn't letting that spoil her enthusiasm for voting.

"Election day is my favorite day," Stone says. "I just, I love going there, waiting in line, voting for the person that I want to vote for. Yeah, yeah, I love to vote."

While some have claimed our election systems are flawed and not fair - Fetsko disagrees.

"We've been around over close to 250 - 60 years," Fetsko says. "You know, the election is the election. Obviously, the advent of the internet has caused a lot of doubts. I think overall, people are skewed to one way or the other because of that. But bottom line, I think it's a fair election a year in and year out."

With hearty food and good company, Riser Tavern on the Links offers a space where voters openly share their concerns, hopes and expectations.

This November, as the people of Columbiana County and across America head to the polls, they do so grounded in the values that bring them together - community, resilience and the shared hope for a brighter future.
