With apologies to our many friends and posters outside the United States... it's time for another one of these! Culture war thread rules apply, and you are permitted to openly advocate for or against an issue or candidate on the ballot (if you clearly identify which ballot, and can do so without knocking down any strawmen along the way). "Small-scale" questions and answers are also permitted if you refrain from shitposting or being otherwise insulting to others here. Please keep the spirit of the law--this is a discussion forum!--carefully in mind.
If you're a U.S. citizen with voting rights, your polling place can reportedly be located here.
If you're still researching issues, Ballotpedia is usually reasonably helpful.
Any other reasonably neutral election resources you'd like me to add to this notification, I'm happy to add.

Notes -
Maybe I'm just naive, but I'm baffled by McClelland's comments about pensions. PSERS has mismanaged the teachers' pension fund to a funded ratio just above 60%, placing PA comfortably in the bottom quartile. Historically somewhere around half of AUM are in "alternative investments" with high expense ratios.
And McClelland just ignores this mess and instead targets the Keystone Saves program requiring more employers offer self-directed IRAs to their employees. As if the average working class citizen could compete with PSERS when it comes to "invest[ing] retirement funds in "alternative assets"". At least PSERS' use of Bridgewater Associates was useful for McCormick attack ads.
