Powerful @USATODAY piece by @thecamianderson @janicejackson @scontrerasGCS on need for stronger school infrastructure. I agree & that's why I was proud to lead the passage of #MeasureRR, which will bring $7 billion to upgrade LA's public school campuses. https://t.co/3g4pvxP7Vq
Sept 26: Get on the paRRty train! Last year, riders & advocates came together to pass #MeasureRR, a critical funding measure for @Caltrain. After a crazy year, we're finally meeting up to celebrate. Join us for a unique party across three counties! 🚉 ⤵️ https://t.co/CADBWqo4PB
At today's board meeting, we were proud & grateful to support the implementation of #MeasureRR. This $7 billion in new funding will support our continued efforts to upgrade, modernize & replace aging school facilities; update technology; & address facilities inequities. (1/3)
On this drizzly afternoon, packing up some amazing @chrisarvinsf pins to send to the incredible #MeasureRR volunteer leaders whose calls, texts, and lit drops made all the difference on Nov. 3 🚉👏
"So, the lessons from Measure RR are that public agency led vision and outreach, multiple stakeholders working together with a public owner and broad coalition working to get the measure passed are going to work best to get measures passed." https://t.co/dEjEOtZxNh
2020 has been a milestone year for Seamless Bay Area:
✔️ We're shaping our region's response to COVID as a member of the Transit Recovery Task Force
✔️ We helped pass #MeasureRR to rescue Caltrain
✔️ We're building momentum for integrated fares & other seamless transit reforms
Given current 7% "undervote" rate—ballots where voters skipped the sales tax—that means something like 465,000 #MeasureRR votes are still to be counted. Passage looks like a lock: Even if 42% or so of remaining ballots are "no" votes—very unlikely—RR would still get 2/3s overall.
Just because I can't help myself, here's an update on @caltrain's #MeasureRR: With results continuing to dribble in, it's currently holding at 70.25% "yes" (needs 66.66% to pass). @KQEDNews

We’re thrilled that Bay Area voters stood together to decisively pass #MeasureRR and rescue Caltrain. This victory ensures that Caltrain rail service will continue as a vital part of our region’s transit network for decades to come. https://t.co/JN8LNFOZbx

"With the passage of #MeasureRR, @Caltrain now has for the first time in its nearly 30-year history a reliable and dedicated funding source,"

Vote count for @caltrain #MeasureRR is virtually unchanged this morning: 70.4% yes. You can expect results to trickle in for the rest of the week (e.g., San Mateo Co. won't release new numbers until 5 p.m. tomorrow). Via @KQEDNews

As we all continue to watch the national races, it's important to take a moment to acknowledge some big wins locally. #measureRR #measureS. Hard work by our @SVLeadershipGrp team and wins shared by all.
ALL #OaklandCity #Measures pass:

✔️#MeasureS1 gives #PoliceCommission >staff & >authority 81%

Very disappointed by the loss of #MeasureZ in Alameda. Finding solace in the passage of #MeasureRR for Caltrain.
MEASURE Z FAILS: An initiative to throw out a 1973 law that banned multifamily apartment buildings in much of the East Bay island community of Alameda went down to defeat Tuesday. https://t.co/YiCMkRwcmm
Caltrain, which apparently dates back to the Lincoln presidency, winning big in funding boost #MeasureRR. Voters in California love these transportation taxes https://t.co/kxj0PAiK8e
Here's the current @caltrain #MeasureRR vote (again, with returns so far only from Santa Clara and San Mateo counties):
https://t.co/Bc3bCD2Avl
San Francisco has yet to post its first results, but early returns from San Mateo and Santa Clara cos. have @caltrain #MeasureRR winning with a 70.2% yes vote. That's based on aggregate "turnout" (% of votes cast vs. registered voters) of 46.2% for the two counties. @KQEDNews
Four years ago: Reporting at Clinton's party at the Javits Center, then Times Square, before crawling into bed as Trump gave his victory speech. Today: At home in the Bay Area covering #MeasureRR to fund #Caltrain - with an eye on the national election, of course.
As the first polls close, only one thing is certain tonight: 99 cent pizza. #electionday #newyorkcity

Speaking of #MeasureRR, there's another ballot proposition up in the Bay Area that would save Caltrain from major cuts and stabilize its budget. Super important measure, also a Yes! I wrote about it a few times for @streetsblogsf
