Labor 2010 Endorsements General
For Election Day, Nov. 2, 2010
Early voting has ended, but the election isn’t over yet. Tuesday (11/2) is Election Day, and we need every member, activist, and ally who is registered to vote and who cares about moving this country forward – instead of going in reverse – to turn out the vote for our endorsed candidates!
Important ballot reminders – don’t forget the judges!
- Under the law, voters must receive provisional ballots when their names do not appear on voting rosters when they go to vote. If that happens to you, you have the right to cast a provisional ballot!
- You can vote for all candidates of one political party [straight ticket] by selecting that party.
- You can vote a split ticket by:
- Selecting the party as if you were voting a straight ticket and then selecting any candidate you wish to vote for of a different party;
- Not marking the party and selecting each candidate, one at a time, in each race you wish to vote for.
- Judicial races are non-partisan and are thus excluded from a straight party ticket. They must be voted for separately!
