Super Fat Tuesday!

Happy Super Fat Tuesday! & As Mardi Gras winds down, and the last party revs up in San Diego, I'd like to recount my voting day for you.

First off, I'm a registered Libertarian. So, I had thought I might be able to vote as a Democrat possibly due to the open election, just to try it out. But, as I found out thanks to These Days , I couldn't. & So, I decided to head out to my polling place.

On the drive, I was confused over who to vote for. The choices, in my mind, were narrowed down to George Phillies , Steve Kubby , or Christine Smith . & Now, I had the chance to hear Christine Smith speak before thanks to her radio show, and she has a good head on her shoulders.

And as I agree with some Democrats that it is time for a woman to be in the White House (and I like the cut of her jib!), I decided to vote for her.

So next up is to vote itself! I rode up to my temple , which also happened to be my nearest voting place. & And who do I see but Amy , one of the reporters for KPBS! & We chuckled over that, and she said she didn't have to interview ME, as I could just blog about it. & Which I'm doing now, as we speak. &

Overall, the voting itself was rather painless, and I'm now back home and blogging.

A big decision awaits some voters this July as the race for San Diego County’s Supervisor District 1 seat heats up. Are you ready to vote? Check out the KPBS Voter Hub to learn about the candidates, the key issues the board is facing and how you can make your voice heard.
