Oh well. I doubt I'll be voting since I can't make an educated vote.

It's not like your vote really counts or anything...

My top two issues are pro-choice and pro-gay rights (marriage).

So far I know that Westly is pro-choice.

I'm a "Decline to State" so I didn't get to vote for any of the prospective candidates

I voted today. Also got my neighbor to go vote too. If you don't vote, you can't complain.

Well I guest you can always complain but you shouldn't

I thought we got ballots for what party we wanted? I got something from the Dems and it says we welcome you.

I'm a registered Libertarian, so most of my choices were 1 of 1 or write-in - but I was glad to be able to vote for some of our local stupid propositions.

(did I just say stupid? why, yes, yes I did.)

I saw that the Republican candidate won in the former Duke Cunningham district. I found this to be interesting. I have absolutely no idea what the campaign issues were there, except perhaps illegal immigration.

This would lead me to believe that illegal immigration trumps political corruption as a campaign issue. The "culture of corruption" campaign would seem to have a foot hold there for obvious reasons.

Either that, or the dem candidate was really bad.

It seems Bob Foster is our new mayor! YAY!

From what I saw the Republican candidate won a squeaker in a staunch 2-to-1 Republican district.

The Democratic candidate was a political newcomer, with only local school board experience, and managed to nearly defeat the Republican in a VERY Republican district against a strong Republican candidate.
