For example, if you don't even know the basic responsibilities of a position, or anything about the people running, then just skip that one! And yes, this includes the "straight ticket" voters. Personally, I would not only eliminate that option, but would also remove the D and R indicators from the candidates names.

This is analogous to the old adage of "it's better to be silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt". In this case I would rephrase it as, "it's better to not cast a vote than to cast a completely uninformed one."

Just my 2 cents.
