THE WORST AD? -- Supervisor Linda Parks and her partners at HonestyCounts.org have been deconstructing dozens of local political mailers and ads this fall, in many cases debunking the claims that they make.

I'm going to give "95 percent accurate*" readers the benefit of the doubt and assume they've already voted. If not, stop right here. If so, then go ahead and participate in another election -- HonestyCount.org's voting to determine which of this year's sleazy hit pieces will be inducted into the website's notorious Hall of Shame.

Given that combined spending in the 26th Congressional District and 27th Senate District will likely top $14 million, there are plenty of nominees to choose from.

95 percent accurate
Over the last 25 presidential elections, Ventura County voters have backed the winner 24 times, or over 95 percent of the time. It is one of only a handful of counties in the nation that has been such a predictable bellwether.
