Given that the California Presidential Primary is utterly irrelevant, some of you may have forgotten that there was an election today. But there is! And Dianne Feinstein needs your vote! Well, not really. But there is also the Democratic Central Committee election! And that cigarette tax!

So, you should go be one of the estimated 6 million Californians (roughly 35 percent) who go out and vote today. No one has bothered to run a serious campaign against Feinstein for her Senate seat, but under new primary rules, all candidates for state and federal offices, except for President, are eligible to end up on the November ballot regardless of party affiliation. As in, whoever comes in second against Feinstein, be they from The Rent Is Too Damn High Party or whathaveyou, will get to be on the ballot in the fall. So that could be fun.

Also, here's a summary of local propositions A & B that could be helpful. Prop A is about trash and recycling, and basically only the Guardian supports it because they hate Recology. And Prop B is about Coit Tower. Get to it.

Oh, and here's how to find your polling place.
