Heather Hadwick has 54-percent support to be re-elected to her second two-year term as the county Assembly representative, in District One. Democrat Xavier Becerra has already been declared the winner as California’s next governor, in a landslide over Republican Steve Hilton. And looking at some of the notable statewide ballot propositions…Proposition Four, which would repeal a ban on public campaign financing is trailing 52 to 48-percent. Proposition Five, which would require separate elections for recalled officials, has a narrow lead of 50 to 49-percent. Proposition 39 is going down to defeat, which would have required an ID presentation before voting and the one-time wealth tax for billionaires, Proposition 40, also appears to be failing, with 55-percent of voters saying “no”.
