Do neither. Partisanship kills democracy.

The difficulty you're having picking sides is easy to resolve. Choose neither. Vote issue by issue and always pick candidates with views most similar to yours to ensure you're best represented. Partisanship creates false loyalties.

And if you do not have time to educate yourself about what individual measures will do to you and your locality then perhaps one should elect not to vote at all. Irresponsible voting is probably worse than nonparticipation - you don't want to throw away the small voice you have in government away.
