the down ticket elections are pretty important, though. "All politics is local", my ticket has gas and weed tax increases, extra money for veterans, allowing my local uni to manage their own investments, a couple of critical judgeships, fed and local reps and senators. If one doesn't know enough to vote on ALL of the choices, I think it is imperative to educate oneself to be able to decide with some sort of knowledge.
