We are voting for the legislature (senate and the house). Some, not all, of the members of both are up for re-election. Since most people in the US think that the legislature has done a horrible job, most incumbents are behind.

Depending on what state/district you live in, you are also voting for Governor, state reps, and direct ballot questions.

In Arizone, yeah, maybe...

PROP. 200: AZ Voter Reward Act Would create a lottery with a $1 million prize for people who vote in the primary or general election. It would be funded through unclaimed state lottery prizes.

I think that is digusting. It would just bring idiots to the polls, who would elect more idiots into office.

That's one of the things I don't like about MTV's voting campaigns: only a retard is voting because Gideon Yago told him to. I'm sure the same sound logic he used to get to the polls will be applied once he's inside. God help us all.

Man, we disagree here. That's probably the ONLY thing I like about MTV. Period.
