no matter how harmless it seems (especially ballot measures.)

Also checking your local fundie groups' endorsements is a good way to doublecheck your school board candidates, etc, since there's usually very little info on them and that tends to be where wingnuts start their climb up the political ladder. And there's the foolproof method of voting against anything the Howard Jarvis Taxpayer Assn. endorses.

But for good neutral info you can't beat the league of women voters. http://lwvc.org/ballot-recommendations
