Who Should I Vote For?

So here's the thing. Every election, I look up the different candidates and do my research. Then I forget where my files are or I don't want to go through all the files. So, I thought perhaps if I created a blog I could just put all the information there, and each candidate would get their own page. Then I realized that would be a lot of pages and didn't feel like creating a blog anyway. So, I decided that I would just create a page on a blog I already had.

Now, I try to be objective when I look up information on the candidates. However, this is my blog and I admit right now that I might be bias. Be that as it may, I am sharing my findings with the world wide web so anyone can use this information to help them decide who they want to vote for. Keep in mind, I am primarily doing this for myself but I am also trying to be objective. I also like to be very brief. I am posting links so if you want to read more, you can. (I also do lots of copying and pasting in order to save time)

Also, I tend to start my research but never finish. At least everything will now be in one place.

This is also a work in process. Whenever I have time to look up candidates I will update this page.

So here it goes. Eventually, I will be putting all the candidates that I am researching in alphabetical order by last name :-)
