Anyone have the SF Bay Guardian's endorsements? I am a bad citizen who has not prepared for the election. I usually use the SFBG endorsements as a starting point, but their site seems to be down. Do any better students of the democratic process have a list of who and what the paper is for?

Nevemind. Finally got into the site, and looks like they're not covering primaries.

But here's the Chronicle endorsements, if anyone wants them.

Thanks, occhiblu. I usually cheat this way too.

Wait, is the election today?

The election's today. Polls are open until 8:00 p.m. You can look up your polling place online.

Yeah, I'm not usually ashamed of it, but there's probably something a bit silly in waking up and thinking, "Shit! I'm supposed to vote today!" and not even really knowing who's running, or what's being propositioned.

I hate waking up and not knowing what's being propositioned.

Or waking up and not knowing what you were propositioned for.

Meh, occhiblu, I think that's a perfectly reasonable attitude towards the primaries. I mean, it's not like they matter. The candidates, in this case, are indistinguishable rich white guys. Like I said, meh.

I'll vote, yeah, but mostly because I know most other people won't. Will I feel like I made some sort of impact? No. Well, yes.... But only because voting will make me get off my butt and walk two blocks to the polling place.

I didn't vote because we were shooting for a record-low turnout and I wanted to do my part.
