Evangelist Franklin Graham told a crowd of about six thousand at a State Capitol rally Thursday that he has “absolutely no hope in the Democratic Party… zero”. Graham went on to say, “Now before you Republicans start high-fiving each other, listen to me…. I have zero hope in the Republican Party, alright? Zero. The only hope, the only hope for this nation is Almighty God.” Graham, the oldest son of evangelist Billy Graham, says evangelical Christians need to vote, even if they have to “hold their noses” the ballot box. He says if Christians are troubled by the current political candidates, they need to run for office themselves.
