One development that has been interesting to note in this election vs. 2004 is just how much better organized the online presences of the various interest groups are. I have received voter guides from a bunch of the various groups that have my email address. Some provide both candidate and ballot prop recommendations, others just do the ballot props. Most of them do unsurprisingly similar recommendations for or against various measures. It’s interesting to see where they’re different or where the various groups may choose not to make a recommendation at all.

I think this is the kind of thing my poli sci student self of 15 years ago would have been ecstatic over.
