It’s 7:15 a.m., 43°, climbing to 67°. The next 10 days are here, and that again includes rain on Friday.
After many tries and getting progressively better, I think we finally got how to cover a day of voting. In a sense, it’s a lot of coverage for not much happening, except that it’s about the process, the details, the mood of a neighborhood. Check out Election Day here.
I know, I know, all you want are the results, and here is the top of that story: With a turnout of only 30 percent, Ed Lee got 44,451, or 31.38 percent, of the first-round votes. The top five who followed:
John Avalos: 26,447, 18.67%
Dennis Herrera: 15,967, 11.27%
David Chiu: 12,655, 8.93%
Leland Yee: 10,595, 7.48%
Jeff Adachi: 9,075, 6.41%
The complete results are here.
Looks like it’s George Gascón for district attorney (42.2 percent) and Ross Mirkarimi for sheriff (38.01 percent).
And there’s no new sales tax, but we will have repaired schools and streets. Again, all the results are here.
