I feel a little silly voting for mayor in a city I'm about to move away from, but I have a preference so I'm gonna.
I'd love to know it. I was just reading my voting "pamphlet" (a strange designation given the fact that it's 150 pages) and I'm more confused than ever. Hopefully I can figure out all these propositions before heading to the polls on my way home.
I need to vote, too, and all I know is that I want to vote for the person I actually know who's running for city council. I need to look up all the other stuff.
Sigh. I want to be a good citizen, and I know this stuff matters, but local elections are so BORING, at least around here.
What state, megan? For my job, I have to track all the ballot issues across the country (there are eight states with questions on the ballot today), so I've got them all listed on my database.
I don't think I'm voting on any of the same stuff you are, megan. It's all local and county stuff, afaict. I should check that, though.

Good lord! My sample ballot was all of one sheet and it used BIG print. Mayor, city council president, comptroller (unopposed), city council member(unopposed.) I don't have it in front of me, but I think that's it for me this year.

My doctor just asked me what I want to do about my migraines.
Uh, stop having them. Ball's in your court, MD.
I don't have anything really to vote for, so I may skip it. Crazy!
California voting information is crazily complete - candidate statements, arguments for propositions, arguments against propositions, responses to both arguments. Knowing that's getting mailed to me allows me to completely ignore all political ads and most of the news.
Mr. Smith would haunt me.

This sounds like a question that should be responded to with a punch to the head. The questioner's head.
Mayor, 3 City Council seats (the top 3 of a pool of 6 candidates), and some bond issues. A typical odd-year election for this area.
