Two weeks to go until election day. Do you know where your ballot is? If you haven't already done so today is the last day to register to vote.

The News-Press appears to be endorsing a straight Republican ticket. The Independent a straight Democratic slate. Surprise! Surprise!

Well, at least they didn't wait until the day before the election to announce their endorsements as they did in 2008 when they endorsed John McCain.

Appearing to sit out this election cycle, at least as far as endorsements go, is the Daily Sound.

James Zoltak, former assistant city editor at the News- Press, now has his byline appearing regularly in the Daily Sound.
