Chico, California SperlingViews

11/4/2009
I am 70, new to Chico; new to CA. I love it here and am from back East, but Chico is very like the town where I grew up. It is a lovely quiet easy place and a great place to find yourself when you have retired. I have one question and I'm not sure it applies, but did Californians go to the polls yesterday. Do we get ballots and/or notification for all voting times and if this is not the place to ask where can I find out? Thanks for listening, Nancy
