VOTE

[GeoFisher]

13th..........At my precinct.

First time I've voted straight ticket, but I wanted to send a message.......the RIGHT message.

But DANG.....I was an uninformed voter. There were 3 ballot initiatives that I had NO idea about, so I left them blank......

This is much to your credit, Geofisher. WAY too many people vote simply because they think that is the extent of their civic duty. Our civic duty is to cast an *informed* vote. Casting an uninformed vote is much worse than not voting.

Casting a vote just for the sake of casting a vote is ALWAYS a bad idea. I really should have known about the Judges, so I could pick the Correct one, but since I didn't as stated, I left them blank.

Thanks for the comments.

Yea i didnt know about the judges either. this was my first time voting. i was gonna do straight ticket but i wanted to do it manually instead. when i came upon the judges i did a bad thing and i just picked one. never heard of any of them before. it was too late when i noticed i should have left them blank.
