Fuse / Progressive Voters Guide

The most useful tool in a voter’s toolkit. I use it to cross check the candidates i support and find out more about the races i don’t know anything about. Do you know which Superintendent of Public Instruction is the most progressive? or which Supreme Court Justice Supports Gay marriage? Fuse and the Progressive voter’s guide do, and that’s why i always use their free resource.

I like Fuse’s contribution to the electoral process in Seattle. I don’t always have time to thoroughly research every candidate running for port commissioner but Fuse does a good job of laying out their supporters and a brief political background. Though they tend to agree with the Stranger’s endorsements I find the Stranger’s approach a bit too condescending for my tastes. Sorry Stranger. You just end up making me feel bad for the candidates you oppose.
Thanks, Fuse!

If you care about progressive issues in the state of Washington — things like health care for everyone and a government that serves the people rather than special interests — the Progressive Voters Guide produced by Fuse is THE resource for you.
Between now and Nov. 4 just go to
and look up your voting district and print out the list of progressive candidates and progressive positions on issues in your local race. Take the list with you to the ballot box and mark your ballot.
This tool is invaluable. The majority of voters fail to mark every race and issue on the ballot — or worse, they guess. That means many races are won on misinformation or no information at all. The 16 progressive organizations that partnered to produce the Progressive Voters Guide and trusted authorities on the critical issues facing our state — a candidate or issue endorsement from The Sierra Club, for example, can be trusted to be one that protects the environment.
The bottom line is this: Real progress means voting every race and issue on the ballot on November 4. The Progressive Voters Guide gives you the names and positions you need to vote wisely.
