I left my ballot for school trustee blank. I don't have any kids, we're not planning on having any, so why influence a race that has zero consequences on my life, and in which I have no information in which to make an informed decision. I'm not sure if this makes me politically disengaged, or just smart enough to stay out of it.

I plan on doing the same for similar reasons as you. If there was a nutjob running who was campaigning to modify the curriculum to teach creationism or abstinence-only sex education or similar nonsense, then I'd be sure to vote for his or her opponent. Since I haven't heard of any candidates having those views, I'm just going to abstain.
