Omfg, it's hard to be a good citizen and vote. Last night Galahad & I spent over 2 hours doing our due diligence --- researching and deciding how to vote on all the state & county amendments. [This was after I spent a couple hours researching the candidates.] Can you believe we even have a state amendment protecting the rights of a pregnant pig? And of course, it's not that simple. There are all these behind-the-scenes machinations & maneuverings. That particular one is there to keep Big Hog out of Florida. Do I want Big Hog out of Florida? Would Big Hog be better or worse than the Big Sugar Barons?
I kept thinking last night that those amendments were painful for me to read and decipher. Average Annie is really going to have a tough time with them. We finally came to the conclusion that we were going to get fucked whether we voted yes or no to most of them. And, I have absolutely no confidence that anyone else is as anal as I am about researching and forming opinions. I know for sure that Galahad would have left most of them blank if I hadn't asked him to help me.
