If you care, I will be voting:
Prop 81 - Library construction and maintenance bond: Yes
Prop 82 - Universal pre-school paid for by 1.7% tax on $400k+ incomes: Oh hell yes.
(I'll miss you, California...your proposition system is retarded, but every so often you come out with a beautiful prop nonetheless...)
As for the offices...frankly, I'm pissed. I actually give a shit about elections, and I even have the time to do research on all these fucking candidates, and even _I_ can't be bothered to go research them. This is ridiculous. I have no fucking idea what differentiates all these different goddamn people, especially when like 7 of them are Democrats, nevermind the parties I've never heard of (Peace and Freedom?).
Look, folks. There's a reason the framers didn't create a direct democracy. Among other things, it's just basic logistical simplicity. I want to vote for one guy, or one party, and that's fucking it. Let me tell you what I believe in, and then _you_ go figure out how to get it done. In the time it would take to research the voting records and positions of 95-odd goddamn candidates, I might as well go do their fucking jobs for them.
For fuck's sake...
