Hey, in a week or so, California has a special election with a bunch of state ballot measures.

I don't know about you, but this is always difficult for me; I get some recommendations and sit down with an absentee ballot, and do my best.

This time, maybe around when you're reading this, I'll check out transparentdemocracy.org and fill in my newest absentee ballot.

They're deal is that they grab recommendations from a broad range of different groups, lay 'em out easy for a voter, making for a reasonably informed decision.
