Everyone is busy these days. But that shouldn’t be an excuse to not at least be informed of the important issues, policies and candidates involved with shaping our nation.

I vote by mail and I usually keep an ear to the ground on several different news and radio stations. Admittedly, it has become increasingly difficult to find an unbiased media outlet opinion. Still, I appreciated the consolidated information in the 2016 California General Election voter guide published by KQED. I thought it was helpful to have various types of information compiled on ballot measures, the candidates and who supports them.

Gmail just reminded me its almost election day. So get informed and go vote!
