【大纪元10月22日讯】(大纪元记者世桑新泽西报导) 全美公民登记选民将于11月2日投票日根据各自居住地区状况投票。今年是中期选举年(也是选民对总统任期处理经济疲弱和高失业率是否满意的一次公投)。所有选区要选联邦众议员；一些选区要选联邦参议员和州长；一些选区要选州议员和地方官员；很多社区将选举市长、市郡官员、法官、警长等地方官员。目前36州的选民正在对州府税和地方税之升降以及债券发行，州府预算和政府管理等具体地方事务政策表达意见。
政党对州长和州议会的控制权，对2010年选区即将重划具有全国性的重要意义。拥有多数席位党有权制订未来10年选举中有利于其候选人的区界。今年共和党呈现强势，这与2006 年和2008 年相反，类似的转变也出现在选民的党派结构上，这是政治气候之下政党忠诚度随时间改变的反应。
新州府选举机构 (The State Elections Division) 的数据表明，新州今年登记选民有527万，比2009年的522万多。民主党今年为175万，2009年为177万；共和党比2009年的107万多了1万。近50%的登记选民244万不属于任何党派，比2009年增加了4万。

1. What should be the federal government’s role in funding and regulating K-12 public education?
