The New York State Board of Elections website has got to be one of the worst government sites in the nation. Can you believe these people don't use HTML for their updates? No. They publish their updates in PDF files.

I would love to know who is the dishonest web developer/consultant or IT Director who is squandering my tax money on that piece of electronic crapulence. In terms of usability that site sucks at all levels. Who the hell is earning $100K + a year for doing nothing but putting up PDF files of some of the most important information all New York voters ought to have readily available.

Anyhow...

More for my benefit that yours I will be publishing all throughout the weekend the lists of candidates we will be faced with come Tuesday.

The primary source is that awful site, but I would like to also give a hat-tip to Democratic Underground's effort in putting together a voter's guide for the state.
