And I say all this as someone who rarely, if ever has a Democratic candidate to vote for in any election besides the Presidential ones. That means I have to go to the local board of elections website a few times a year, just to see what’s up(polling place changes, any new rules, issues to pay attention to, etc) and look at sample ballots for my district, so I can spend a bit of time seeing if there’s actually someone besides an off the rails Republican to vote for. I’ve lived in the same place for 20 yrs, sadly there have been only a couple of times I didn’t leave most of my ballot blank because the people who are running are bigoted, racist, sexist, greedy assholes of questionable qualifications. It’s sad. I am disenfranchised and it irritates the hell out of me every election cycle.
