It would be ridiculous to try to number the whole page of candidates on the current ballot, but you could indicate, say, 3 or 5 choices in order of preference, and an agreed number of higher rankings, not necessarily 2, would be on the November ballot. Do you have a strong preference among the Dem candidates? I have to mail my downloaded and printed ballot very soon to ensure it arrives on time. I've been surprised by left-leaning people supporting Steyer on account of his environmental position. Don't forget the preferential ballot.
