Well, here in CA, Gray Davis handily won after some nail-biting preliminary results, Gary Condit lost, eBay exec Steve Westly barely won the State Controller's seat. Overall, democrats won pretty big, catching Gov, Controller, Sec of State, Insurance Commissioner, Treasurer, Lt. Gov (we vote them separately, a Latino won the first state-wide office since the 1800's), and Attorney General.

And voter turnout was in the gutter. A new low, I believe.

SF thumbed their noses at the homeless by defeating both legislation to build homeless shelters and cutting a food stipend that a couple thousand homeless people get from the local government. SF passed proposition requiring the government to explore the possibility of growing and distributing medical marijuana. Several tax hike propositions failed.

In Sacramento, both propositions to CUT utility taxes failed and we sold lord knows how many billions of dollars in bonds for the same issues we sold bonds last year and the year before that and will again next year.
