Election Day 2013
Nov. 5th, 2013 07:00 amIn the United States, this is what is known as an "off-off year election." That is to say that without the first tier glamour of a presidential election (as in 2012, 2008, etc.) or the second tier (off year) glamour of senate and congressional elections (2010, 2006, etc.), we the people are most likely going to see a low voter turnout. Apathy is the poison of Democracy.
VOTE!
As usual, I endorse SmartVoter.org for finding your local ballot races - because this time around it's pretty much all about the local races for most of the United States. Here are my Pittsburgh picks:
Mayor of Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh City Council - District 4
Ballot Question: Residence of City Employees
