This just in – Measure WW has passed, and East Bay Regional Park District will be able to maintain its real estate, avoid commercial development, and even invest in the expansion of park access for cyclists, as well as other user groups. This is the perfect time to be living in the Bay Area.
This election was historical in so many ways, but one of the ways I will remember it most is in seeing both sides of this particular issue, so closely.
Even though I almost got run over a few times on my morning run, trying to navigate between the numerous polling places packed with lines down the sidewalk; I realized this was probably the biggest election in history. And 1/3 of the voters in my district voted by absentee! Democracy is pretty sweet, sometimes.
