Early Voting and Candidate Information

 

Early Voting has begun for the November 5th, 2004 General Election! Here are a few quick links to the County Clerk's website for your voting information:

• Many Ways to Vote: Early, mail, in-person, etc. links and additional information.
  
  
• Early voting times, dates, and locations from today until election day.
  
  
• My Voter Information: let's you check your voter registration, sample ballots, the status of your mail-in ballot, districts, and more!

VoteChampaign, in collaboration with the local League of Women Voters has a lot of additional information about elections, as well as a non-partisan local Candidate Guide:

The League of Women Voters also held a local candidate forum last week, including candidates for County Coroner, Auditor, and County Board District 5. That video is available on their YouTube page here.

The League also has additional information and voter education events coming up on their website. The League sometimes takes positions on some policy issues, such as the current question on the auditor referendum. The Cheat Sheet does not necessarily take the side of all the perspectives we link. Both candidates for auditor made their arguments against abolishing the elected auditor position in the candidate forum linked above.

There will be a few new Cheat Sheets in the next couple weeks on County government issues, with the latest updates on meetings, issues, and hopefully a little less drama!
