There's an election tomorrow. Please vote. And if you live in Philly, here's the Billy Penn Procrastinator's Guide to the election. There's the state supreme court retention question and the DA's race, among other things. No ballot questions this time.

@skyfaller Oh shit. Thanks for the heads up regarding this party! Not a fan of the spoiler effect either.

@silver_huskey It's also interesting to learn of the existence of the Liberal Party:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberal_Party_USA
It seems to be a splinter of the less shitty portion of the Libertarian Party after the fascists took over that party's apparatus. Having once been a left-leaning libertarian, I feel their pain. But since unlike the Working Families Party (and like every basically other 3rd party) they ignore the spoiler effect, even if I agreed with their platform I wouldn't vote for them.

@silver_huskey Thanks for the reminder!
I think I'll generally follow my 9th Ward Dems ballot, except I'm not gonna vote for this chucklehead:
> Joseph Russo [...] did not run in the primary, but was granted a “magic seat” nomination for an open seat by the Democratic party. Russo declined to participate in the Philadelphia Bar Association’s judicial review process.
Magic seats are undemocratic, and he has the gall to further avoid accountability by blowing off the Bar's review.
