We're too broke to hold elections. Instead, the state is upping withholding rates by 10%. Hooray for California.

There were no ballot issues, and the only candidates were Democrats and Republicans. So I stayed home.

Some people do what they can within conventional party lines... we had local officials and ballot issues... and even if we didn't, I'm trying to be more politically aware and make a choice, even if it is only to vote against a certain candidate... [shrug] You made a conscious (and informed) choice anyway, that's more than many can say.

ashamed to admit it- been too wrapped up in my little world....

Hope all is well.

We voted in the city elections for council, mayor, treasurer, etc. They typically don't identify with a party for these elections, though many used Obama in their campaigns. Looking at the election results, I don't think anything changed.

I would have voted, but I am not registered here. although, i saw an I VOTED sticker on a gas pump handle, so maybe I should have tried... :)

unrelated: The thing you sent came to my friend's house yesterday, she is going to forward it on to me next time there is a package headed out. thank you!!

[forestmaster]

Hoped to catch you with the package. Ah well... if you email me another snailmail address, I'll send the next one more directly... [wry grin?]

Thank YOU as well. Haven't tried any yet, but since I have them with me, will have to remedy that... :)
