Hastily researching today's election while fumbling with the vote-by-mail ballot you never got around to mailing? Me too! I'm bit late, but here are my choices in today's election. In the local races, I've followed the city council for years and have met and seen most of the candidates in action. For the more obscure judicial races, I go by the L.A. Times endorsements and L.A. County Bar evaluations. For most of the races, I also read candidate statements at votersedge.org to find candidates who align with my generally progressive values.
You can also now vote at any Vote Center in L.A. County, which is likely different than your old polling place used to be. So while I'm sad I no longer vote at a Laser Tag arena, it's nice to have a wider choice of locations and hours. Find a voting center near you and get out there and vote!
