[Dariens B Gd] Darien's Ballot Guide is COMING Oct. 12

[Darien De Lu]

Hello, Subscriber Friends!
	By now all registered California voters should have received the Official Voter Information Guide.  And your ballots are in the mail to you, if not yet in your mailbox.  This election is an important and seriously contested one, with looming questions about challenges to casting our ballots.
	So we all want to vote early(ish) this year — and I’m one who usually advises waiting for late-breaking election info.  
	With 14 state props. on the ballot, I anticipate you’ll be interested in this year’s Ballot Guide, and I plan to send it out on October 12 — earlier than in the past!

Subscribe and Unsubscribe
	That means there’s time to tell all your friends about the helpfulness of my guide, so they can subscribe.  To do so, from your correct email, email the word subscribe — in the body or subject line — to Dariens_ballot_guide-requests at lists.sonic.net <mailto:Dariens_ballot_guide_requests at lists.sonic.net> .
	Or you can unsubscribe.  (That’s what you should do, if your email address is changing  From your old email, email the word unsubscribe — body or subject line — to Dariens_ballot_guide-requests at lists.sonic.net <mailto:Dariens_ballot_guide_requests at lists.sonic.net>.  Then subscribe from your new address.)
	Of course, you can also choose to unsubscribe for other reasons, and that’s better than you getting a lot of unwanted emails  (or me getting a lot of bounces).  I won’t be offended; I won’t even know!

Resources!
	While waiting for the Ballot Guide, you can read up on electoral races — or even the props.  

   + For helpful information on candidates for nearly every office and every district, both state and local, with a progressive slant; I recommend Courage California’s Progressive Voters Guide <https://progressivevotersguide.com/california>.  They also cover the props!  
   + With just a little nosing around — you can find very good articles about different CA props. on the Cal Matters website <https://calmatters.org/>.  
   + Find all kinds of very helpful voting info — races to registration — at Ballotpedia <https://ballotpedia.org/>.
   +	 Of course, you can also get diverse info at the official Secretary of State website <http://www.sos.ca.gov/>.  My favorite page on that site is about campaign spending <http://www.sos.ca.gov/campaign-lobbying/cal-access-resources/measure-contributions/>.  See who is making the big ballot measure contributions.  (But you may get no further there than the name of a PAC.  That’s your chance to bring forth your inner investigative reporter by digging into the web for more info.  More fun than scrolling!)

Answers!
	Well, my answers — and only on the propositions — are coming, on October 12!
	For now, here’s a teaser:  
				With five – alive: Yes on 1 through 5!
