maxomaiWe vote by mail in Oregon, and my ballot arrived today. I just took the time to fill it out. Tomorrow morning I'm going to talk to one of the drop-off points and deposit my ballot; thus I will have completed my voting duties for 2012.
I voted for Kate Brown for Secretary of State;
YES on 77
YES on 78
NO on 79 (come on.)
YES on 80 (it's about time we started backing off marijuana prohibition)
NO on 81 (right hearted but badly written)
NO on 82 and 83 (SCAM!!!)
NO on 84 (We have enough revenue issues in Oregon)
YES on 85 (because the Corporate Kicker needs to die IMO)
YES on the library district (even though it's going to cost me a fortune)
YES on police and fire pension reforms
YES on school district bonds
NO on arts district because I think a flat $35/year is regressive. I'm thinking of all the people I love who are flat broke here.
Of course, I also savored voting for Barack Obama one more time. Last time it was because I thought he'd be a real agent of change. This time it's because he repealed DADT, invested $90B in wind and solar, saved the auto industry, prevented a recession, killed OBL, and saved SC's dad from being dropped from his health insurance after he got cancer. There's a lot of thing I wish he'd done differently, but I'm eager to see what he can do with four more years.
