I'll try to fill mine in today. It wouldn't have been any easier to do it earlier, and it's preferable to do it on election day or close to it, so you have all the information available. The main contested elections in my district are local ones, and stuff is always happening.
that's a good point.
has anything significantly swayed your local election preferences this year?
feel free to make up an analog situation to avoid revealing anything personal.
Well, a good scandal might have come along to take out a few of the candidates, though that didn't happen afaik. Other than that, I mean, what is the hurry? I don't follow politics all that closely anyway, but there are a few local organizations that I like, so I figure on mostly going by their endorsements. It usually takes me about an hour to fill in the ballot.
I like voting early just so I get confirmation my vote was counted and if anything goes wrong I have a few weeks to deal with it.
your method sounds good too.
