    If it’s local city elections, it’s difficult as the line between parties gets fuzzy. Some candidates have little to no info on their policies and such.

    If I can’t find anything about them at all, I won’t vote for them. If they’re hyper religious or make it their main focus of their campaign, I won’t vote for them. Other than that, it’s just a coin toss.

    Larger elections like stare and national are a bit easier. If they have the letter R next to their name, it’s safe to assume they’re insane, evil, or both. It’s become the norm these days. That makes it a choice between independants and democrats. I guess it comes down to which has better policies on issues I care about.
