Can't wait to learn more about the 2026 ballot measures! This is such important civic engagement.
Pavel Sakoian· Oct 5
Love this. Making voting accessible and educational is exactly what we need.
Maria Santos· Oct 5
Measure 4 is going to be a disaster if it passes. Homelessness spending hasn't worked. We need different solutions.
Maria Flores· Oct 5
Different solutions like what? Letting people die on the streets? That measure is compassion.
Maria Santos· Oct 5
@mflores.baker Compassion is wasting BILLIONS that haven't solved anything. Open your eyes. Our tax money is disappearing.
Antonio Delgado· Oct 5
Yeah and homelessness is getting WORSE. At some point we have to admit the 'spend more money' approach has failed completely.
Maria Flores· Oct 5
@msantos.teacher @antonio.chef This is what happens when people don't care about humanity. You people only care about your property values.
Maria Santos· Oct 5
Oh here it comes. Anyone who questions spending is 'inhumane.' That's such lazy thinking. We can care about both fiscal responsibility AND helping people.
Antonio Delgado· Oct 6
YOU PEOPLE act like pointing out failure is the same as not caring. I WANT to help homeless people, but throwing money at bad programs doesn't help them.
Maria Flores· Oct 6
If you cared, you'd vote YES on Measure 4. But you'd rather complain and do nothing. Some of us actually care about our community.
Benjamin Rossi· Oct 6
@antonio.chef @msantos.teacher Before you lecture us, walk down 5th Avenue and tell me how many more tents you see. The problem is getting WORSE.
Maria Flores· Oct 6
@ben.rossi_vintage Yeah because you want to criminalize people instead of house them. Move to Arizona if you hate poor people so much.
