		<description>I am in agreement with the writer, we are afraid to vote in states election there are so mine people that one have no ideal of what they stand for, or who they are for instance the judges that are on the ballot nobody even know that they existed until that time and moment. 

 Another reason is that the regular news only give bits and pieces of the news not the complete picture of what is needed to make an intelligibility decision.  It is embarrassing to say the least and you may discuss this later with a friend or relative only to discover that they left off voting for some law or person simply because they did not know anything about them (same as you did)  There need to be more accountable of information than we get from the TV stations in a particular city this news should be broadcaster through out that state just as the presidency races are done</description>
