Kevin Shelley, the secretary of state and the busiest guy in California when the polls close Tuesday evening, took time last week to speak to the Los Angeles League of Women Voters at its launch of a get-out-the-youth-vote drive.

Normally when I visit a city I like to get a T-shirt or two with the town's name on it. Not so with San Francisco. I skipped buying any while I was there. I'm afraid wearing one of those whould give people the wrong impression!
