Well this was wrong! We didn't call it yet, but Measure E looks almost certain to fail. The later vote did not go in the direction I expected. x.com/dkopf/status/206239364…

Oakland still has lots of votes to count, and though I don't think Measure E is likely to pass, I wouldn't count it out. Here's my argument for why you should keep watching the @sfchronicle results page: sfchronicle.com/projects/202…

And although most measures don't swing by over 4 points with the late vote, which is what Measure E needs, there have been a number that moved that much since 2022. It just wouldn't be that unusual for it to end up passing.

My best guess is that this ends up a close race. But voters choices are unpredictable and it's also possible it will remain a pretty clear rejection of the Measure.

The Chronicle's series on Indians in the Bay comes out this week. I am proud to've worked with many to get it off the ground. Let's start with this staggering stat: the Indian pop has doubled here since 2010. They're the fastest growing major group. 1/🧵

Perhaps nowhere in the U.S. has been more transformed by Indian Americans than the Tri-Valley. @SarRavani digs into what life is like there sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti…

Glad to have been a part of this project. We'll have a story a day about Indian Americans in the Bay this week. Keep reading!
No U.S. region is more Indian than the Bay Area. Now the tech and immigration pipeline that fueled their rise is facing a new test. sfchronicle.com/projects/202…

"THE WRONG STALKER" Shawn was an addict. Bridget was his counselor. He went to jail for tormenting her. But nothing was as it seemed. Unbelievable reporting and storytelling by the great Matthias Gafni (@mgafni). GIFT LINK: sfchronicle.com/projects/202…
