Help!

My ADD is through the roof. I simply can't focus or concentrate.

Is there anyone here who's in The South Bay area of Los Angeles?

I've been so focused on the national elections (Senate, House, Governor) I'm just now looking at my local ballot..

I'm stuck on Judge Office No. 39, 48, 57, 135, 137 and County Measures and State Measures.

If anyone can post a guide or give me some feedback I'd be grateful...

I used Courage Campaign for a lot of what was on my Ballot, but it didn't have everything. Google the Judges, see who supports them.

The Party agrees almost entirely with ACLU and Teachers.
The interesting point is Prop 34. The party takes no position, but the repubs and Jarvis group say yes, so I say no.

Seems straightforward enough, and there are links to get more info, IIRC.

On edit, congratulations on 9000 posts.

I really relate with the ADD—this is such a chaotic time! I am sharing these resources in case you find them helpful.

Vote Save America
You provide them with your street address, and they help you build your ballot:

YouTube
This YouTube video is a little biased (I hate the pearl-clutching about the bond measures), but it's a relatively straightforward assessment of each of the 10 propositions on the ballot.

NBC Bay Area did this segment on Prop 34:
