I'm haven't lived up to these ideals on every race on every ballot ever, but I *try* to research everything. Sometimes I guess wrong about which legislative district I'm on on some local race, or I run out of time to look up every one of the zillion races, from state senate to a long list of judges to be retained or booted. If it's a partisan race and I can't figure it out on the merits, the party label comes in handy. It's a rule of thumb for a set of general principles I subscribe to. Then if I later learn this particular Democrat behaved idiotically on the City Council or Board of Supervisors or wherever, I'll know for next time not to vote for him or her.
