@jws That's horrendous. California has its problems, but our election procedures are impeccable, and we've never required federal intervention to ensure a fair election. That's largely a legacy of the Progressive Era in the early 20th century, as well as legislation in the 1960s and 1970s.
@jws Anyway, we get the following:
- Full text of the proposition
- Nonpartisan analysis by the Legislative Analyst
- Argument for
- Rebuttal to argument for
- Argument against
- Rebuttal to argument against
- Political party statements of purpose
- Candidate statements
I can't imagine not getting all that and still making an informed decision.

@jws I've never lived in Georgia, but somehow I'm not surprised. I suspect the people running the state have a vested interest in making sure that certain segments of the population don't vote.

@kdfrawg I have a huge Technics component system and speakers, for which I really don't have anyplace in the house. I'm inclined to get rid of it, but my wife thinks otherwise. Meanwhile, it's taking up space in storage.

@kdfrawg The dirty little secret of this election is that we have a Rockefeller Republican in the race, and she's going to win.
@kdfrawg Not sure why I still have it, actually. It's been almost 20 years since I had a turntable hooked up.

@kdfrawg It's going to take a while. The Republican civil war is going to be a long one, I think. I'll bring the popcorn.
@kdfrawg Pretty sure I have Autobahn around here somewhere on LP.

@kdfrawg They would have been, except this year, because sod the bloody GOP. It's payback time.
