Otter's Rock

I don't know how much of a problem this still is, but I was in my 30s before I found out the schedule for local elections. I voted in every election I knew about, but mostly I didn't know.

I turned 18 in 1985, and I still live in the same town I moved to that fall. I'm not sure that the information has become more accessible since then. For the local offices, the election that matters is the August primary because whoever wins the Democratic nomination will run unopposed in November.
