I felt the weight of democracy upon my shoulders, and I discharged the weight by voting. The vast and complex issues I faced

1) Three guys running for one city council seat. I voted for the guy who had the most yard signs out. It probably means a) he is a Republican, but b) he really wants the job. I hope he does well.

2) One guy running for one open recreation district seat. I voted for him, he even had a canvasser come by my house two days ago.

3) Should we pass a levy to raise 150K for a new library roof. I voted yes as it involves four of my favorite things: a) libraries; b) public construction; c) taxing; and d) spending.

4) Should we recall one recreation district supervisor who appears to have misused taxpayer funds? I voted yes because my political adviser Steve B says drain the swamp.

5) Should we recall another recreation district supervisor who also appears to have misused taxpayer funds? I voted yes because why not.
