In our state, we have the top two primary system. That means that it is possible that when the primary is over, you do not have a Republican and Democrat candidate (which is what a primary is for), but instead, you have two people from the same party. The primary for...

Any time we propose to change the Constitution, we should do so with a great deal of caution. However, this particular change is a good idea. The Constitution prohibits the state from having equity investments. The concern is real that government money would be used...

Ballots are coming out all over the state - either they've already been sent or will be sent out in the next few days. So you should get your ballot by the 16th or so. Need a new ballot? Have you moved recently? Need to know where to take that ballot, if you don't...
