We did this before, but I am too lazy to do a search. I downloaded at my sample ballot. This time we are voting for 34 positions, 6 state proposals and one city proposal, for a total of 41 votes? Can anybody beat that? ---

14 offices, 11 state propositions, 7 city propositions = 32. San Francisco just isn’t trying anymore. In the 2008 presidential election, we had 22 city measures on the ballot.
