I was the only person at Cora Harper Community Center voting this morning when I stopped by before work. Back in February I actually had to stand in line and wait.
Whether this bodes good or ill for local Assembly candidate Bob Smith I have no idea. His chances depended on getting his name out in the other parts of the district anyway — Barstow is just a tiny part.
I’d say it definitely bodes poorly for Prop 98. I can only hope Prop 99 is defeated as well and somebody crafts a more robust eminent domain protection bill that doesn’t have any other elements that can be used to campaign against it.
