The California Election is November 3rd.  The single best way that we
can make sure that motorcyclist's interests are preserved is to
make sure that our representatives are sensitive to our needs.
That will prevent laws from being passed that restrict our rights
and make sure that laws are passed that are in our interest. One
recent example is the new law that allows us to use car pool lanes
unless it is specifically resticted.

To help us identify which legislators are motorcycle "friendly",
ABATE has compiled a list to take to the polls with you.
The primary voter's guide was such a success, that ABATE got
more sponsors, including the AMA.  So, this guide will be getting
a very wide distribution.  If you are not a registered voter, it is 
not too late to register for November.  Look up "Board of Elections" 
or "League of Women Voters" in your phone books.  Or check a local 
Post Office, Library or Fire Station for a registration card.

ABATE has recommendations for the State Senate, the State Assembly,
the US Senate, and US House.  They do not have a recommendation for 
every district.  I have included only those districts that have 
recommendations.  Your voter's booklet that you received in the mail 
states your districts or call the Board of Elections and ask.

I have also included a phone number to call if you wish to volunteer
or donate to that legislator's campaign.
