Inside folks making their voice heard in one area. Then in some of the back rooms, the ballot counting happening. Ive been speaking with san franciscans about some of the propositions on the ballot, and there were several.

So i ended up voting yes, and i thought that was a good thing to do. We have a housing shortage here in california
