There's a typo, AD54 is listed twice - the second time, with Blanca Pacheco, should be AD64. Whoops. Also apparently Yi has actually led a charge against HLA for some reason so seems I was wrong on that.

Also there is a difference between the rules for "nonpartisan" offices including Supervisor and Councilmember and "partisan" offices such as Assembly, Senate and House seats. The former can be decided in the primary if someone gets 50%+1. The party offices always go to the top-two runoff even if one candidate has a clear majority.

Here are the results, in the form of: Nandert endorsed canditate victorious? ( Yes indicates they won and will not require a runoff, runoff means the preferred canditate recieved 1st or 2nd place, with no majority for anyone, thus a runoff between the top two happens in November. No means the preferred canditate lost or did not make it into the runoff County Supervisor District 2: Yes (supermajority!) District 3: Yes District 5: No City Council District 2: Runoff (Burgos 2nd) District 4: Yes District 6: Yes District 8: Yes (supermajority!) District 10: No (runoff between Yoo and and Hutt, both canditates panned by nandert) District 12: No District 14: Runoff (Jurado 1st, with Leon close behind) Measure HLA: Yes (65% in favor) California State Prop 1: Yes (50.2 % in favor) CA-32: No California state senate District 27: Yes (1st place in primary) District 35: No California assembly District 41: Yes (Harabedian 2nd place in primary) District 54: John Yi 2nd place (endorsement withdrawn in comments?) DIstrict 55: Yes (Bryan 1st place in primary w/ supermajority) District 64: Yes (Pacheco 1st place in primary)

8:16 Regarding the US House & US Senate, by your own example of CA District 32 Brad Sherman, they do have power to ask for Federal Funds and can convince the President & US Department of Transportation give them much needed federal funds. This can be the difference between a timely built transit project, or a delayed/cancelled transit project.

The issue is identifying NIMBY Congress people is easier said than done. I would say look at where they are on housing and climate projects to triangulate a best guess. If they believe in doing nothing or vaporware there, then they probably will do that in transit.

No, the way is been there forever , 30 years??! And we have thousand of unhoused neighbors. I would rather have a representative that has their only loyalty to the American people instead of Israel.

@Justice4all723 You're posting that below the line here? Who do you think is going to read it? Besides me, of course? Also, good luck getting the U.S government to not throw a lot of money at foreign policy. The issue is that they plead poverty on some issues but not others, and in this case the best point would be to have them pull money from useless highway expansions and put it into transit because we already spend a lot on highways but they're not effective as a solution. That way, you don't make the foreign policy crowd potential enemies of transit. They would have an easy response too if you did make them enemies "besides the money, what do they have to do with one another?" And they might drop that part about the money if they weren't feeling charitable. Don't put those parts of politics together. Potentially sacrificing transit in a possibly losing battle against Israel seems highly shortsighted. Keep in mind U.S. aid is not the only source of aid to Israel, and aid is not the majority of their defense budget. Also, they can always look for other allies. They already sell a lot of weapons to India, for example. So potentially turning transit into a political football in foreign policy arguments and attracting even more opposition to use it as a cudgel against Israel that probably won't even work seems ill-advised to be polite.

The Jungle primaries look like fun. But pretty obviously ought to be changed to be ranked choice, with the options that turn out to be the top 2 ones in a ranked-choice jungle primary going on to be the choice in the election whether someone gets 50+% or not. I still think single-member districts is a really bad idea, but getting it to be less bad should be an obvious good.

Hey love your videos nandert, but I think you made a mistake about if a candidate reaches more than 50% then there’s no general election. According to the California Secretary of State website, there’s only a couple situations where what you said is true; for almost all elected offices the top two move onto the general election even if one candidate gets more than 50% of the vote in the primary.
@nandert6 ай бұрын
Ah you're right there's a distinction between local and state races. State reps I believe are top 2 no matter what (and congress for sure), while City Council and Board of Supervisors can win in the primary.

I thought under California's system, the top two candidates always advance to the general election even if one gets over 50%. Louisiana allows winning outright, as well as special elections in Texas, Georgia, etc., but I'm pretty sure California and Washington always hold generals. Maybe this is different for local offices, but I know at least for statewide and congressional elections there is always a general.

Measure HLA seems like the easiest vote for anyone who cares about not driving for every trip in any capacity. Hopefully if it does well it'll lead to other cities doing their own and/or going county wide eventually.

LA definitely needs more subways but it's always so depressing what a corrupt, third world cesspool it is. If they keep spending all the money on bribes and not building a bigger system with a police presence to keep it safe, the ridership level will stay pathetic.
@mrxman5816 ай бұрын
You have no idea what you're blabbering about. Los Angeles has built more rail transit than any other city in the country over the last few decades and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. And, LA Metro ridership increased every month in 2023. Things aren't perfect on the LA Metro, but significant improvements have been made on the system, especially over the last 7-8 months.

Too late to watch this video, it really doesn't matter. As a non car drivers, all politicians are against transit, just different way. I email county supervisor on why she spent so much effort Goldline extension without supporting local bus services, she never responded. This is LA. Even Republicans politicians are not going to eliminate bus services. After 30 year of seeing all sorts of improvement not helping non car drivers, i will any opponents of these politicians, The one that only said rail. The ones that support HSR. Unless their opponents are members of KKK, i will not vote HSR n rail only supported politicians. Anything i learn from 35 years, the rail budget divert money further from badly local bus service. Rails are good, but rails are only good in NY, DC, n SF, past 35 years, LA has designed rail systems to accommodate car drivers but not non car drivers
