The midterm election was a Democratic wave, but underlying numbers show nuance in California

Eric McGhee, fellow at the Public Policy Institute of California, notes multiple of the state's congressional Democrats, won in head to heads against other Democrats this November. photo credit: Wikimedia/Mrs. Gemstones It's been over a week since election day, and more races in Sonoma County and around the state are getting settled. The midterm elections on November 3rd delivered big wins for Democratic Party candidates across the country, the county, and the state. Joanna Paun, endorsed by the Sonoma County Democratic Party in the race for the county's 2nd district supervisor seat, officially declared victory a week after election night. Melanie Bagby, also endorsed by the local democratic party, continues to hold a slim lead in the race for 4th district supervisor. Sonoma County will also be represented by three Democrats in Congress in Washington D.C. Eric McGhee, a senior fellow at the Public Policy Institute of California said despite the major Democratic Party gains, there's some nuance to the story in California. "If you just look at the races that had both a Democrat and Republican on the ballot, so cross-party contested races, the the swing in those seats was actually smaller than it was in similar seats in

The best wine gifts often begin with someone in mind. A guest walks into a local tasting room searching for a bottle to bring to a holiday dinner or give to someone special. Instead of choosing from a store shelf, they can talk with the people who know the wines. They may hear where the grapes were grown or why a particular vintage stands out. By the time the bottle is wrapped, it carries a piece of Lake County and a story worth sharing.

Just when you think the Brentwood City Council can’t possibly make itself look any more ridiculous, along comes the downtown tattoo ordinance.

Establish reasonable regulations, create a permitting process, and give businesses an opportunity to succeed.

SF's Great Highway fight may just be over

After six years, three ballot measures and a supervisor recall, San Francisco's fight over the Upper Great Highway and Sunset Dunes may finally be winding down. Why it matters: The dispute has become one of SF's most divisive battles over how to balance public space and neighborhood traffic. Driving the news: Voters this week overwhelmingly rejected Proposition G, which would've reopened the Upper Great Highway to vehicles on weekdays. Supporters of opening the highway haven't announced any renewed effort since the election. This SF Chronicle precinct map showcases the geographic divide in Prop G sentiment. Precincts directly along the Upper Great Highway voted no while pockets just inland voted yes. Support shifted back to no farther into the city. Catch up quick: What started as a pandemic-era street closure turned into a six-year political fight. 2020: San Francisco closed the Upper Great Highway to cars during the COVID-19 pandemic, giving residents space for socially distanced recreation. 2021–2022: The city restored weekday vehicle access. In November 2022, 65% of San Francisco voters rejected full vehicle access under Proposition I. 2024–2025: 55% of voters approved permanently converting the highway into a park under Prop. K , and Sunset Dunes opened in April
