San Diego already killed the mileage tax once—Sacramento wants it back

San Diegans already beat the mileage tax once. We may have to do it again. A few years ago, SANDAG wrote a charge on every mile you drive into the region’s long-range transportation plan. I fought it, and so did thousands of you. People packed meetings, filled in boxes and said plainly that they would not pay a new tax […] The post San Diego already killed the mileage tax once—Sacramento wants it back first appeared on Escondido Times-Advocate .

Early Elk Grove election results: Robles and Parks face off in 4th District

Elk Grove City Councilmember Sergio Robles led challenger Peggy Parks in early election night returns Tuesday as he sought a second term representing the city’s 4th District. As of 8:01 p.m., Robles had 65% of votes tallied, compared with 35% for Parks, according to unofficial Sacramento County election results . The initial results reflected ballots mailed before Election Day, with more votes left to be counted. Robles, 33, was first elected in 2022 and previously served on the city’s Planning Commission. A member of the California Army National Guard, he emphasized housing affordability, support for small businesses and programs helping first-time homebuyers. Parks, 58, a community volunteer, emphasized homelessness, traffic safety and improving city infrastructure. She also wanted to expand safety education about electric bicycles and hold regular office hours to hear from residents. Both candidates identified housing and community services as priorities , although they proposed different approaches to addressing the city’s needs. The 4th District covered much of southwestern Elk Grove, including neighborhoods south of Elk Grove Boulevard and west of Highway 99. The contest was the only Elk Grove City Council race on the November ballot. In August, the City Council unanimously appointed Mayor Bobbie Singh-Allen and

Matsui holds narrow lead over Vang in Sacramento congressional race in new poll

Rep. Doris Matsui, D-Sacramento, holds a narrow lead over progressive challenger Mai Vang in the final hours before the election in Sacramento’s closely watched congressional race, according to a new independent poll. The poll, conducted by the USC Democracy and Fair Elections Lab and first shared with The Sacramento Bee, found that Matsui led Vang 41% to 36% among 442 likely voters in the 7th Congressional District . Another 16% of voters surveyed last week remained undecided. Matsui’s lead is within the poll’s margin of error, leaving the race too close to call. “Slight edge to Matsui here, but tied in some ways statistically,” said Christian Grose, director of the USC Democracy and Fair Elections Lab, who led the poll. The results offer the first in-depth look at voter sentiment in the contentious intraparty and generational battle for the 7th District, which includes downtown Sacramento and stretches from Lodi to parts of El Dorado County. Political experts have predicted the race will be close and could take weeks to determine a winner. The findings point to an advantage for Matsui among undecided voters. When undecided likely voters were pressed to choose a candidate, Matsui’s lead grew to 49% to 39%

How long after the election can political campaign signs remain up in California?

Election Day is here, heralded for months by the political signs that popped up on lawns across California. Some voters might not know the state has laws governing the placement of campaign signs. Cities also may have their own laws on political sign placement. What should you know? What are the rules on campaign signs? According to section 15.148.600 of the Sacramento City Code, owners of property in residential areas can put up temporary signs so long as the combined sign area does not exceed 10 feet. However, temporary signs cannot be displayed for more than 180 days in a year. Different cities have different rules, however. For example, Roseville allows up to 128 square feet of signage on properties, but only 90 days before and up to 10 days after an election. The rest of the year, the limit is 6 square feet . Where can signs be placed? There are special rules for temporary political signs placed within 660 feet or visible from highways and certain freeways. To install political signs visible from or located 660 feet from state highways, candidates, campaign workers, or supporters must have filled out a Statement of Responsibility form and submitted it to
