Writer's Block: Vote early, vote often
[Error: unknown template qotd]
Generally I like to vote for candidates based on issues and my perception of the candidate's general trustworthiness compared to the other candidates on the ballot. For the past few years, however, I've been following a party line simply because the direction of the other party as a whole disturbs me much more. (As a voter who is officially unaffiliated with any political party, I've been receiving lots of campaign literature from both the Democratic and Republican candidates this year, and I have to say that the local Republicans really haven't been making themselves look very good.)
