The latest City of Tucson election results:
Republican Steve Kozachik now leads Democrat Nina Trasoff by 1,722 votes. The Black Swan looks unbeatable!
Democratic Councilwoman Karin Uhlich now leads Republican challenger Ben Bueher-Garcia by 240 votes. That race keeps getting closer and closer.
Prop 400 is now losing by 784 votes.
This article appears in Nov 5-11, 2009.
How many additional votes were counted and how many are left to go? Given that turnout was higher on the east-side, trended anti-incumbent, not to mention Republicans don’t like mailing their ballots in, this one could close within 100 either way.

Prop 200 was a you betcha thing…
you betcha!
😉
Well…you know what they say about getting the government you deserve….
Alternately…the trouble with politics is that, ultimately, the government always gets in.
