[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is why I voted by mail. I sat for over an hour in front of my laptop reading all of the candidates' positions. OMG. That was painful. No wonder why so many people vote based on sound bites and flyers.[/quote] I do look up the candidates' positions, but I tend to rely on the recommendations of groups whose judgement I trust, such as the Maryland State Education Association which has their own list of who they like. Most local newspapers also have their own recommendations which can be useful information. I find that there are several offices I simply do not care about, such as Register of Wills or Orphans' Court Judge. I usually leave those blank unless I've already taken up a position. There is absolutely no way I could quickly research the dozens of choices for the Democratic Central Committee. I did look at the names to see if there was anyone I already knew but there wasn't, so I left it completely blank.[/quote]
