"I got my HISTORIC sample ballot today"

Just curious? Where are the candidates listed on yours, wondering if they are all the same.

On mine, Arnold is #2 and Tom is #136, that sucks!

They are rotated in each congressional district in the state. They had some kind of "drawing" to determine the order, then, because of some judicial ruling in the recent past, they must then rotate them in each of the districts.

The judge ruled that ballot position really is important!

The worst thing is Tom's position statement is being left off the ballot pamphlet, due to his not complying with the contribution limits under some new law. His campaign blew that one and it really hurts. I don't know whether he's appealing the decision, or not. Doesn't matter as it will be too late to beat the presses anyway. What a shame!!!
