10. I'm going into a polling place for early voting on Monday

But I got my sample ballet last week and started researching the candidates. Most are easy - I already know who they are. It's the judges and the local "non-partisan_ races that I have to check out.

Oh - and the water district people. In fact that is the hardest decision this year. One of the candidates was a local Obama campaign leader in 2008 - he's the one who got me into the campaign database and taught me the software. The other guy has really, really good scientific credentials. Usually we get two hacks running against each other to get a start in politics - which may be what the Obama guy is doing, but his answers to the questions are really good and he's anti-fracking.

The other thing I always have to research are the amendments. At least this year there aren't so many! If you're not sure about the Amendments, the League of Women Voters site has good background info.
