Myself, I can't see making a couple of developers rich so I'm a no on 82 and 83. Thoughts?

In fact the only things I voted yes on were the two referrals, the gillnet ban and the keeping the kicker money for K-12.

The only thing is the county I'm registered in is not one I've ever lived in so I was a bit uninformed about the local races (I forward my mail from there). My county clerk is running unopposed, which is great because she is so helpful. Most of the ballot measures I had already made up my mind on.

I haven't had a chance to go through it yet. Since I pay more attention to national politics than local ones, it will take me awhile to decide what to vote for. If there are any innocuous sounding but actually terrible measures on the ballot, I would appreciate it if someone would give me a head's up about them.
