I am my municipality's election official. My state has vote by mail as well...it was formerly called "absentee ballot" but now you don't need an excuse to ask for one.
I've read sample ballots from CA that were as long as a small novel and I am glad my state doesn't have anything as confusing as I&R. Reading all of those ballot questions makes my head spin, and I consider myself to be informed of politics. I wonder if people just press all "yes" or all "no" or just don't vote at all. My local sample ballot is approx. 11x17 and folds up like a map.
