Elspode, you sound very informed on the issues. Good for you.

I was a little shocked when I got to the polls today and hadn't completely done my homework. It was a three page ballot. I knew the races well, but I only knew of one proposed amendment to the state constitution, when there were three, and while I knew there would be some bond issues, we had 7 of them. It took me a little longer than I originally planned to read through all the proposed language and think about it before voting. When I left the polling place, I took a sample Democratic Party ballot from one of the people passing them out outside, and I had voted right down the party line.

I'd be curious to hear of any problems anyone encounters as well while trying to vote. My only problem was that the ballot was so long, it was taking everyone a long time to read through it, and the line moved slowly. But it wasn't bad enough to complain. Only a half hour.
