Already voted. Most of my selections were Republicans, though I threw in with the occasional Democrat on the state level (primarily due to the obnoxious behavior of the local Reps close to elections). Most of the measures up for vote were pretty mundane, though there was an insane health services bill (raise taxes to fund a massive Socialized bureaucracy in healthcare? I think not!), yet another minimum wage hike, and an utterly unbelievable GM foods bill (label anything that has come into contact with genetically modified crops with a scary warning sticker, even if there are no GM materials in the final product).

OMFG, today was the first time I have ever NOT voted on every topic. I simply could not bring myself to vote for ANY of the gubernatorial candidates. Even the third parties sucked, in California. We had the now-infamous Gray Davis and Bill Simon, and then the smaller parties included a woman who wanted safety testing of all genetically enhanced foods, for California schools to lead the nation in all subject areas, and to cut taxes at the same time. We had someone who listed Gene Roddenbury as one of his favorite philosophers (I'm not kidding), and we had this guy who wanted to abolish everything from the Death Penatly to Three Strikes laws AND who wanted to de-criminalize marijuana (ostensibly illegally, because possession of marijuana is a FEDERAL crime). There was literally NO ONE who deserved my vote! It was terrible!

Yeah the repubs in CA screwed up. Most demos (including me) were itching to fire Davis. I could have voted for Riordin but not Simon. I think of lot of demos and indys could have voted for Riordin, imho.
Im okay with legalizing marijaunia but I know its moot because federal law trumps state law. Its more of a protest kind of thing.
Im all for 3 strikes.

I voted about three weeks ago with my absentee ballot. Voted against Baby Shrub, his druggie daughter, and his smuggler wife. Voted in favor of the death penalty, in favor of banning smoking, and against the freakin pigs. Don't remember the others, except for keeping the judges (I have a friend who knows some of them and said they're decent people, but I couldn't remember which, so I said keep 'em all).phongn wrote:I generally voted Republican, though abstained on the Agricultural Commisioner. There were a few Libertarians on the ballot but I didn't know much about their policies.Steve wrote:I voted today. I voted for Shrubby's little brother, against that bitch Corrine, and in favor of a libertarian for our state legislature seat.
I also voted in favor of a state constitutional amendment making death penalty an exception to the cruel and unusual punishment protection, in favor of an amendment forcing the government to disclose probably economic effects for future amendments, and against an amendment to make it illegal to keep a pregnant pig tethered up or in a cage.
I'm an evil SOB.
I abstained on all the judges and justices.
I voted against the smoking amendment (should be up to the businesses themselves IMHO), against class size limits an for the rest.
And yes, that fucking pig question shouldn't have been on the ballot!

Why isn’t that ever an issue of politics? Because you don’t live in a democracy. You live in a plutocracy. Money rules.

American Conservatism is about the exercise of personal responsibility without state interference in the lives of the citizenry..... unless, of course, it involves using the bludgeon of state power to suppress things Conservatives do not like.
