3. Well, you have an entire year to think about it

before you have to vote. My advice is not to get too agitated about the choices right now, because a year is a long time and you're likely to get an ulcer if you fret about it. And regrettably, you're right: your vote will probably not matter by June; it will have been already decided.

I'd worry more about why DC still has no real representation in Congress.

PS: On the upside, you do escape the frenzy that exists when you live in an early primary state like Iowa or New Hampshire. I used to do a lot of primary canvassing in NH, and I actually felt sorry for the people whose doors I had to knock on. I figured they'd been bombarded by workers from every other candidate as well, every weekend, with about a zillion phone calls in between. It's endless and fatiguing.
