As we keep a watch on some of the big races back east, including the Maine marriage equality battle that has turned out to be every bit the nailbiter we expected, we’ll be using this as a thread to update some of the California races on today’s ballot.
CA-10 results from Secretary of State:
28% reporting
Garamendi: 56.1%
Harmer: 39.5%
Also, have a look at Ballotpedia’s list of CA local initiatives. We’ll provide updates of some of the higher profile issues, including SF initiatives, Salinas Measure K (sales tax), Ventura Measure A (sales tax), among others.
Feel free to post updates from measures you’re following in the comments.
UPDATE 3: Ventura Measure A going down, 44-56.
UPDATE 2: AP and SF Chronicle call it for Garamendi.
UPDATE: Salinas Measure K (sales tax) doing poorly with absentee votes. As you see above, Garamendi maintains his sizable lead.
Does CC not report by precinct? They are showing 60,000 votes in and no precincts. It’s game over based on Garamendi’s lead there alone.
Marc Levine, founder of Marin County Young Dems, was elected as San Rafael councilmember.
is ahead by 30 votes so far (191 yes, 161 no) but i don’t think it will get 2/3 votes in needs.
the tax initiatives going down by such big margins?
