Way back on June 8 California had statewide primaries. A few races were really close, and apparently one of them -- Senate District 40 in Chula Vista -- was mistakenly called a victory for Assembly Member Mary Salas. As many will attest, Salas is no friend of bikers.
Not so fast ... as the last returns finally came in, she fell short by 22 votes to her primary rival, Juan Vargas. And Vargas supports repeal. Now Salas is hoping to turn things around with a recount, but she needs to raise $80k to pay for it.
For some reason, Mary's having a hard time finding rich friends. To make matters worse (for her), the California Secretary of State says there has yet to be a race that's been overturned after a recount.
Bye bye, Mary!
But the best news is that pro-repeal Juan Vargas is running against ... pro-repeal Brian Hendry. Regardless of how the SD-40 race turns out, we are yet another district closer to a legislative majority. Score so far in the State Senate ... 10 Green, 10 Red.
