Ruben:Well?
Me:Well what?
Ruben:election results...how does it feel?
Me:Waiting for the props….
Ruben:that's going to be a long wait.
Me:Only for 8 and 4. 4 is neck and neck (or was before I came in) and 8 was 56/44 yes/no, but I was hoping that once SF county was counted it would swing the other way. 2 looks like it was going to pass and apparently, there are a lot more children-haters like you who don’t want sick kids to get healthy.
Ruben:btw, I voted yes on 3 and 1a. no apologies needed.
Me:Haha. I am surprised. But the bond amendments, except 12 looked like they weren’t going to pass anyway ~60/40. I was really bummed about 1 because I really wanted the infrastructure laid out at least. We’ll see!
Ruben:I must admit that my chat with you this morning on 1a and 3 swung my vote (especially your note that we gotta start sometime to deal with these issues; we can't wait till we have a budget surplus to work on them). My feeling is that if we are going to get into massive debt, make it worthwhile; i.e. infrastructure, education, healthcare; not destruction of those very same things in another country, through war and the like.
Me:I take back one bad thing I’ve said about and/or to you. But just one. The remaining 10,984,335,498,435 still stand.
