Welp, the voting is done for another term! A few ballot measures I really really really hope pass, a senator I don't actually like much but who is less of an unmitigated jackass than his challenger, and a typically depressing governor's race.

I always try to do my research on the judges on the ballot, and every time I find it ridiculously difficult. Frustratingly, the only judges whose decisions/record are easily accessed are judges who are appointed in the first place, and for a life term at that. It's a pain, because judges in the lower circuit courts touch more people's lives and more directly than any other elected government official. But it's very difficult to find accurate information on what they're actually doing.
