[dropcap size=big]L[/dropcap].A. Taco is in the field making sure everyone that wants to vote in this beautiful, diverse, sprawling metropolis is getting the chance. So far we've found younger people, grandparents, moms, dads, working class people, white collar folks, families, and so many people of diverse backgrounds all exercising their individual right to vote. Someone even brought their little dog.
We will keep this space updated throughout the day with any developments. Polls open at 7 am and stay open until 8 pm.

He said it was more than the general election, especially on social media. As California is mostly a blue state, he feels the propositions are the most important issues to pay attention to locally.Henry Tong, of Alhambra, noticed a much bigger push for the younger generation to vote.

But as a dialysis patient, she was most impassioned about Prop 8. She voted against it because she is concerned about overcrowding. She said that the passage of prop 8 might cause clinics to shut down, furthering the overcrowding problem.Danielle and Frank Gomez of City Terrace said they voted against Prop 8. ”It's very important that we vote and do what we gotta do to make sure that we make America blue again," Danielle said.

Today, ICE was observed stopping a vehicle in Colton, hanging around Riverside, San Bernardino, at the Santa Maria Jail again, and in Escondido. In Paramount, ICE was seen taking a man off the street. Community members were also able to pressure agents back to their field office in Oxnard. In San Diego, community members confronted ICE in a parked vehicle outside of Lincoln High School. The agent pepper-sprayed the community watcher before driving off.
Today immigration agents were seen in the San Fernando Valley, Glendale, Downey, San Diego, and all over Ramona today where again they performed Kavanaugh stops and families in fear and with tears were detained and deported. We also have another death to report, ICE is going after some of our community responders in San Diego, and we went to California City’s ICE detention center where we learned of Captain Healthcare and more.
