• Activists' Voter Registration Drives Can Mislead

Bill Neff was puzzled at the message a young man left on his phone last week. The caller, who said he was from the Family Policy Institute of Washington, told him, "Our records indicate that you're not yet registered to vote in Washington," then advised him to go to the institute's Web site, where he could register online. Neff called the Clark County elections office, which confirmed what he already knew: he had been registered to vote in the county since 1988.

Cheers: To those in Washington who provide long-term care for seniors and people with disabilities. According to a two-year study by the AARP Public Policy Institute, The Commonwealth Fund, and the SCAN Foundation, Washington ranks second in the nation in terms of providing quality care for those who need it most. Only Minnesota scored better. Washington scored particularly well in the percentage of Medicaid spending going toward home and community-based care, and in support for family caregivers.
