How I'm Voting, June 2026 Primary

[Jeff Hobson]

Dear fellow voters,

Oops, my first delivery of this message had a blank subject line and some typos (that's what I get for finishing it late at night!). Here's a corrected version -- for those of you unphased by the prior version, apologies for the duplication:

I'm a little slow this off-year primary, but here are my recommendations for the June 2026 primary (or see the TLDR summary below). 

As usual, please: 

• forward this to people you think would be interested;
• encourage people to visit the blog;
• encourage folks to sign up for this email list (see the footer below);
• send me feedback via comments on the blog (I answer blog comments before I answer individual emails); and   
• VOTE and wear your "I voted" sticker with pride! 

And of course, all views in this email and on the blog are my own and are not those of my workplace or any organization I'm involved in.

Best,

Jeff
