Looking at the WCCUSD Election Results

The Measure D parcel tax renewal passed by 79%. Antonio Medrano and Tony Thurmond defeated Karen Pfeifer (incumbent) and Robert Studdiford for School Board. Now the anlaysis can begin.

The place to start for information is the County elections Web site, specifically:

I have posted a GoogleDocs spreadsheet that looks at both races on a community-by-community basis (defining community as precincts whose IDs contain the same letter codes, like “KN” for Kensington).

Mark Woo has also provided some JPEG image files representing the precinct-by-precinct vote for Board with individual graphs on a map for each of three sections of the district:

Back on Track

We’ll be meeting today to discuss this and other issues. I’ll post a summary after the meeting.
