Ugh, I hate in person in so much.

The (paper) voter guide only lists my city council candidates. It does not list civil court judges or anyone else who might be on the ballot. You have to know to go to NYC DOE's website, go to "find my pollsite/view sample ballot" so see who's actually on the ballot.

You've gotta do this in advance of going to your poll site, and then (w/ ) memorize the order you want to vote for candidates in.

So stupid. Just universal , please!

Anyways , along with city council, you're voting for - https://www.thecity.nyc/2023/6/6/23750267/candidates-district-attorney-bronx-queens

It pains me to vote for Katz, but I'm ranking her 2nd because Grasso is so bad.

And you're possibly voting for judges, but who even knows who's good and who isn't because no one reports about them.

@Andres4NY Note that DA is a state position and therefore not selected by ranked choice

@meelar Oh! I didn't realize, thanks.

EDIT: see, the sample ballot doesn't show which is RCV and which isn't. I otherwise wouldn't have known until I entered the booth. Fuck this system.

@Andres4NY @meelar at least it's just a question of throwing your vote away, not left wondering at which stage of the RCV "IRV shell game of a counting method" it gets thrown away for you.
