Choosing

This afternoon my wife and I reviewed our sample ballot for the November elections and, frankly, that process makes our choices look even less appealing.

I still haven’t decided for whom I will vote for governor. I don’t think that Rauner can do anything to help the state and I don’t think that Pritzker will do anything to help the state. Otherwise I’m splitting my votes for statewide office between Republicans and Democrats, doing my best to choose the lesser evil.

Since the only contested countywide race if for County Assessor, I won’t vote for the other county offices and I’m still undecided about Assessor.

I’ll vote for Mike Quigley. He’s acceptable as our Congressional representative but I may feel differently in 2020, thinking he’s served long enough. I’ll probably vote against incumbents for state legislature.

    All you can do is try to abide by your own moral code.

    Thanks to motor voter we hold in our grubby little hands sample ballots for both FL and NC. I hear they are easily available in IL at kiosks set up outside graveyards. The trifecta.

    Hey, YOLO. 😁

    Drew,

    Similar here. I recently registered to vote in Colorado but could still vote in Florida if I wanted to. Frankly, given the shit-show that is the Governor’s race, I’m glad I’m out of Florida now.

    Although I’ll miss Florida’s state income tax and other inexpensive benefits thanks to all those tourist dollars.

    We actually are still FL residents. I was obviously kidding. I’ll get my chance to vote DiSantis.
