Hi friend, Liz here.
I want to ask you a personal question: have you voted yet?
I won’t bore you with ideas of duty and patriotism. But if you believe in change—in yourself, in our country, in anything—I hope you’ll vote.

For those in Colorado like myself, I’ve compiled a brief voting guide for you (because we’re all lost down ballot, amiright?).
But I’ve also curated this Envy List to highlight things that matter more than voting does, to give us all some perspective in these trying times. ;-)

The Judges: Learn how Colorado judges have been rated by an independent commission (click on your county)
The Candidates: Read about the candidates in each district across Colorado
The Issues: Discover what your yes or no means for each ballot measure
To get you in the mood to mail in that ballot, listen to the story of the most dynamic group of voters in this year’s election: suburban housewives, AKA yours truly. (The Field podcast from the New York Times) Listen…
