    Voting? Governor, Lt. Governor, Sec. of State, AG, Ins. Comm., US Senate?

    Who to vote for in each?

    There's too many candidates in many races. The Republicans will get crushed unless there's an obvious favorite.

    N/A.

    I used to have this fantasy that if all voters just filled in a few choices of select local candidates and issues, there would be a backlash within the major parties. Imagine it, millions of ballots cast, yet only a trickle of votes for the major seats of gov't. The voting populace sending the message, NONE OF THE ABOVE.

    One should earn about local politicians and choose wisely. Understand state Propositions, county/local issues and make informed choices.

      This is the first election I've been able to listen to many candidates in person. The totalitarian bent of many of the officeholders finally gotten me off my complacent *** to pay attention to what these people have to say.

      I found the following a good place to start:
      Get sample ballots, voting information, candidate evaluations and more.


      Also the CRPA voter guide:
      ELECTIONS NEVER END!! Newsom’s Gerrymandering Special Election is set for November 4th! If Prop 50...


      Once you narrow down a bit you can find interviews of many of the candidates on rumble and youtube.

          I went mostly with Independent so they'll have a shot against a democrat candidate in the general election.

            News here in Boise...

            ...says "anemic" number of votes.

            Follow the rules...no vote, no biatch.
            True wealth is time. Time to enjoy life.

            Life's journey is not to arrive safely in a well preserved body, but rather to slide in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "holy schit...what a ride"!!
