If I undersand your question, I believe it would be a good idea to put equal value resistors across each of the caps to make sure the voltage is equally balanced across both caps (and to serve as bleeders).

Oh drat, my ascii art screwed up.. Anyway, there is a good discussion about the need for balancing resistors here:http://www.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/~reese/electrolytics/ about half way down the page.
