Susan's 2014 Midterm CA Voting Guide

Here is how I cast my ballot for the all-important 2014 Midterm Election.
While the top of the ticket is a foregone conclusion here in the People's Republik of Kalifornia, you must vote if only to retain your right to complain later.  No excuses.

Very few people will bother to vote for the judges because many do not know much about them.  Below I list who I think will do a good job wearing a black robe.

This year's voting guide list is dedicated to my friend, Melissa B. who called to tell me that she relies on my voting guide every election cycle.  I wouldn't have done it but for her encouragement.
