"content": "\u003cp>\u003cem>This post has been updated to show results with 100 percent of precincts reporting.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Voters in three Bay Area cities passed rent-control measures, while voters in two other cities rejected similar ordinances.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ballots in Burlingame, San Mateo, Mountain View, Alameda and Richmond featured \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/10/06/is-rent-control-fair-the-question-at-the-heart-of-the-debate/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rent control measures\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measures vary slightly, but all of the tenant-backed proposals limit the amount that property owners can raise rents (roughly tied to the rate of inflation) on certain units, and they allow evictions only for specific reasons, like failure to pay rent or breaching contracts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Richmond’s Measure L passed with 64 percent of the vote. In Alameda, voters rejected a rent control measure supported by advocates and instead passed a competing measure that the city put on the ballot by 56 percent. Renter groups argue the city’s measure is watered down and that there is no rent increase cap, which does little to protect renters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mountain View voters passed one rent control provision, Measure V, by 53-47 percent. They narrowly rejected the competing Measure W, sponsored by the city council, with a vote of 51-49 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Voters in Burlingame resoundingly rejected that city’s Measure R, by a margin of 67-33 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Longtime Burlingame resident Alisa Ruiz-Johnson was campaigning against the measure earlier on Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re safe here. We have a very utopian place. We do have a need for affordable housing but we need to figure this out as a community,” she said, adding that a rent board Measure R would have established lacked sufficient oversight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Mateo voters similarly trounced that city’s rent control initiative by 61-39 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Renter advocates for both San Mateo and Burlingame shared an election party at Caribbean Garden, a salsa club in Burlingame. There was dancing and as the night slowed down, those in attendance gathered for a quick speech from Jennifer Martinez with Faith in Action — which led the rent control campaign in San Mateo and supported all the Peninsula measures. She said even though the results don’t look favorable in San Mateo and Burlingame, her coalition and the volunteers that have come out are not through fighting to stay in their homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think people are going to stop trying to change and make housing a more just issue,” she said. “I think we’ve definitely awoken a voice. It’s not the end of building a coalition that is concerned for working families and middle-income families.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The issue of rent control hasn’t garnered this much attention in California for decades, ever since a renters’ movement was born in the wake of Proposition 13, which passed in 1978 and reduced property tax rates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between 2010 and 2014, the \u003ca href=\"http://reports.abag.ca.gov/sotr/2015/section1-strong-recovery.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bay Area’s population grew\u003c/a> by roughly 270,000 people, while fewer than 40,000 units of housing were added, according to the state Department of Finance. Competition in the housing market has been fierce as rents continue reaching \u003ca href=\"http://www.bizjournals.com/sanfrancisco/blog/real-estate/2016/10/oakland-3000-average-rent-zillow.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">record highs\u003c/a>, and that has led to stories about mass evictions and displacement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most people involved in the debate about how to solve the housing shortage agree on one thing: More housing needs to be built. But that could take a long time. Thus, the tension around what \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/10/06/is-rent-control-fair-the-question-at-the-heart-of-the-debate/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a fair compromise\u003c/a> might be in the meantime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the tenants’ side, rent control is a way to slow or stop the immediate displacement of people in the Bay Area — especially those with lower and middle incomes. Small-property owners have also argued that they may be priced out if they can’t afford to maintain their rental units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The issue of rent control is not likely to subside with Tuesday’s vote. Some cities, like Concord, are in the midst of determining how to slow displacement caused by rising rents, while renters in other cities, \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2015/12/21/redwood-city-renters-officials-face-off-as-housing-crisis-intensifies/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">like Redwood City\u003c/a>, have been aggressively pushing their city leaders to take up rent control.\u003c/p>\n\n",

There was dancing and as the night slowed down, those in attendance gathered for a quick speech from Jennifer Martinez with Faith in Action — which led the rent control campaign in San Mateo and supported all the Peninsula measures. She said even though the results don’t look favorable in San Mateo and Burlingame, her coalition and the volunteers that have come out are not through fighting to stay in their homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think people are going to stop trying to change and make housing a more just issue,” she said. “I think we’ve definitely awoken a voice.

Competition in the housing market has been fierce as rents continue reaching \u003ca href=\"http://www.bizjournals.com/sanfrancisco/blog/real-estate/2016/10/oakland-3000-average-rent-zillow.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">record highs\u003c/a>, and that has led to stories about mass evictions and displacement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Most people involved in the debate about how to solve the housing shortage agree on one thing: More housing needs to be built. But that could take a long time. Thus, the tension around what \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/10/06/is-rent-control-fair-the-question-at-the-heart-of-the-debate/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a fair compromise\u003c/a> might be in the meantime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the tenants’ side, rent control is a way to slow or stop the immediate displacement of people in the Bay Area — especially those with lower and middle incomes.

The GOP defied the odds in a year in which they were almost entirely on defense and rode a wave that carried Donald J. Trump to the White House.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even with their best opportunities to gain seats in years, Democrats so far have only been able to pick up deep-blue Illinois. And they narrowly hung on in Nevada, which was Republicans’ only offensive opportunity.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Going into Election Day, Democrats thought they had expanded an already favorable map for them, putting Republicans on notice in Indiana, Missouri and North Carolina. But in the end, it wasn’t enough. Among competitive races, only the New Hampshire Senate race remains too close to call. The Louisiana Senate race will go to a December runoff, but Republicans are expected to easily hold that seat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state that best tells the story of the night is Wisconsin, where Republican Sen. Ron Johnson won re-election in a state most in the GOP wrote off months ago. He defeated Democrat Russ Feingold again in a rematch of their 2010 contest. Feingold had been trying to become the first former senator to win a Senate rematch since 1934. Johnson ran a strong race and was able to take advantage of tightening polls in the presidential contest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both parties went back into the race with millions of dollars in ads in the closing days, but even Republicans thought it was a lost cause, and Democrats just viewed it as an insurance policy of sorts. But as we’re seeing across the country now, those polls were very, very wrong.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Indiana, former Democratic Sen. Evan Bayh lost his comeback bid by a stunning 10 points to give GOP Rep. Todd Young the win, keeping the seat of retiring Sen. Dan Coats in Republican hands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Bayh entered the race this summer — after Democrats persuaded their initial nominee, former Rep. Baron Hill, to drop out — he quickly became the heavy favorite, with his universal name ID, family goodwill in the state and a $10 million war chest. Democrats were ecstatic they were able to give Republicans a headache they didn’t need in a year where they were already almost entirely playing defense.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Bayh didn’t live up to the hype. Republicans were able to attack him over his ties to lobbyists and raise questions about his residency and purchase of a multimillion-dollar home in Georgetown — enough to hand Bayh, a former senator and governor and son of former Sen. Birch Bayh — his first loss ever in the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He stumbled over his Indiana address during an interview, and it was later reported that he’d charged taxpayers for hotel stays in the state before he retired in 2010. Trump did well in the state, and that certainly helped Young, but it was a stunning collapse for Bayh in what looked like an almost sure thing when he got into the race.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Richard Burr also kept North Carolina in GOP hands, winning re-election over Democratic former state Rep. Deborah Ross. Burr ran a lackluster race, frustrating many national Republicans, but Ross was damaged by Republican hits over her tenure as the head of the state ACLU. But overall, the uptick for Trump across the country and his win in North Carolina helped Burr, who narrowly ran ahead of the GOP presidential nominee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pennsylvania Sen. Pat Toomey also hung on to win re-election, beating Democrat Katie McGinty in a race called just before 1:30 a.m. ET by the AP that clinched Republicans’ hold on the Senate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Missouri Sen. Roy Blunt also hung on to win re-election over Democratic Secretary of State Jason Kander. National Republicans were frustrated for months as they didn’t think Blunt was taking his challenge from Kander, a young Iraq veteran, seriously. But the GOP wave across the country helped carry Blunt as well, though he was trailing Trump by about 8 points in the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two lone bright spots for Democrats were in Illinois and Nevada, but those wins netted them only one seat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rep. Tammy Duckworth picked up Illinois for Democrats, defeating GOP Sen. Mark Kirk. He already had the dubious distinction of being the Republican who represented one of the bluest states in the country, and he won in 2010, which was a good year for the GOP. Duckworth is an Iraq War veteran and former U.S. Army pilot who lost both of her legs and partial use of her right arm when her helicopter crashed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Duckworth ran a good race, but Kirk had a lot of missteps and gaffes — most notably during a debate when he made a \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2016/10/28/499739422/gop-sen-kirk-incorrectly-hits-opponent-duckworth-over-heritage-military-service\">flippant remark\u003c/a> about Duckworth’s military service and heritage. Her mother is from Thailand and her father is American, and when she talked about her family fighting in the American Revolution, Kirk’s retort was, “I’d forgotten that your parents came all the way from Thailand to serve George Washington.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats also kept the seat of retiring Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid in Nevada. Buoyed by Hispanic turnout, former state Attorney General Catherine Cortez Masto defeated GOP Rep. Joe Heck to win the open seat. She will become the first Latina elected to the U.S. Senate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans will also easily keep their House majority, extending their six-year lock on the chamber, the AP projects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans weren’t expected to lose control of the House, even if Democrats ended up having a better night across the board. The 30 seats Democrats needed were an uphill climb, but as recently as a few weeks ago, Democratic strategists thought 20 seats might be possible. As polls tightened nationally, though, 10 to 15 seats seemed the most likely outcome.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, Democrats will do well to break into the high single-digits in terms of pickups. So far, they have just five net pickups — two of them Florida seats that Democrats were expecting to win because of court-ordered redistricting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just four Republican incumbents have lost, and two of those had problems independent of the growing GOP wave. Twelve-term Florida Rep. John Mica lost to Democrat Stephanie Murphy. The Republican incumbent didn’t take this very real challenge seriously, much to the frustration of national Republicans. Court-ordered redistricting made his district more Democratic and included more than 40 percent of new territory, along with a growing Puerto Rican population. He acknowledged just two weeks ago that he didn’t even have a campaign manager or a press secretary.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In New Jersey, GOP Rep. Scott Garrett also lost his re-election bid. Garrett made waves when he reportedly refused to pay dues to the National Republican Congressional Committee last cycle because it was supporting LGBT candidates, and that hurt him in suburban New Jersey. His Democratic challenger, Josh Gottheimer, a former Microsoft executive and Bill Clinton speechwriter, outraised Garrett while many of the congressman’s Wall Street donors abandoned him over his views on gay marriage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>GOP Rep. Bob Dold in Illinois lost a rematch with former Rep. Brad Schneider in a district that takes in the northern Chicago suburbs. Dold won the race in 2010, lost it to Schneider in 2012, but now has lost it again. Clinton won Illinois big, and it’s also where Democrats have their only Senate pickup as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Nevada, freshman GOP Rep. Cresent Hardy also lost re-election to Democrat Ruben Kihuen, a former state Senate whip. The Northern Las Vegas district is almost 30 percent Latino, and it’s one that Obama carried by 10 points four years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans also held onto House seats they were expected to lose. For example, in Iowa, freshman Rep. Rod Blum, a very conservative member of the House Freedom Caucus, was able to easily win re-election in a district President Obama carried by 14 points in 2012.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>To comment, \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/NPR/posts/10154947042406756\">go to this story on NPR’s Facebook page\u003c/a>.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2016 NPR.

Delegate-rich Ohio, Florida, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin moved to the Republican candidate.

But he bested 16 more experienced rivals in the primary process while spending little on traditional campaign infrastructure and relying on family members for political and media acumen.

The president-elect is virtually Obama’s polar opposite and in fact needled Obama for years with false claims over his birthplace.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Obama had campaigned feverishly to elect Clinton in hopes she would preserve his signature domestic health care law, revive a plan to open up a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants, and nominate more left-leaning justices to the Supreme Court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By contrast, Trump’s governing agenda is far less clear. He has promised to deport millions of immigrants who don’t have papers, to build a wall along the U.S. border with Mexico and to bargain with foreign governments, such as those of Russia and China. His list of nearly two dozen potential nominees to the nation’s highest court is largely in line with conservative doctrine, if Trump in fact chooses from that list.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are hints that Trump, 70, would defer to his vice president, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, on many key policy decisions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That would hardly be the first unorthodox decision by the candidate and his campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To say Trump violated the norms of political contests would be an understatement. He never released his tax returns, citing an ongoing audit that would not have barred him from making them public. He called his opponent a “nasty woman,” launched his campaign by declaring that some Mexican immigrants who come to the U.S. illegally are “rapists” and “murderers,” and flatly denied accounts from about a dozen women who accused him of past sexual misconduct or assault.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many voters also appeared to be undeterred by the release of a 2005 videotape from Access Hollywood in which Trump, on a hot mic, talked about grabbing women between the legs because celebrities “can do anything.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His relationship with Congress represents another uncertainty. Trump has openly feuded with Republican lawmakers such as House Speaker Paul Ryan. In other cases, Trump promised to create a SuperPAC that would go after his enemies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The election deals yet another bitter defeat to Clinton, 69, a former first lady and U.S. senator who had appeared to retain a modest lead in national polls heading into Election Day. Clinton, the first woman to run atop the ticket of a major political party, had cast her candidacy as an inclusive vision for the future. She pledged to devote new resources to restoring American infrastructure, to fight for gun safety measures, to fix a broken immigration system and to nominate judges to the Supreme Court who would overhaul the campaign finance system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clinton had been shadowed for more than a year by revelations she used a private email server to conduct State Department business. The FBI investigated her handling of classified information and determined that “no reasonable prosecutor” would have filed any criminal case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in the final weeks of the campaign, FBI Director James Comey dropped a bombshell. He notified Congress that the agency had discovered a new cache of emails and needed to sort through them, just 11 days before the election. Comey later announced the FBI had found nothing to change its analysis in the case, after polls between Clinton and Trump had tightened.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former Trump adviser Barry Bennett attributed the victory to the idea that Trump understood the mood of voters better than the political professionals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a testament to how angry they are at Washington, and Washington better hear it,” Bennett said. “Perhaps we got a little aligned too closely with business and not with the people. So maybe this is a shift back, which would be good for the party.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump supporter and onetime candidate Ben Carson put the president-elect’s appeal this way: “As I’ve said all along, this is not about Democrats and Republicans, this is about we the people versus the political elites.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2016 NPR.

He has promised to deport millions of immigrants who don’t have papers, to build a wall along the U.S. border with Mexico and to bargain with foreign governments, such as those of Russia and China. His list of nearly two dozen potential nominees to the nation’s highest court is largely in line with conservative doctrine, if Trump in fact chooses from that list.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are hints that Trump, 70, would defer to his vice president, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, on many key policy decisions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That would hardly be the first unorthodox decision by the candidate and his campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To say Trump violated the norms of political contests would be an understatement. He never released his tax returns, citing an ongoing audit that would not have barred him from making them public. He called his opponent a “nasty woman,” launched his campaign by declaring that some Mexican immigrants who come to the U.S. illegally are “rapists” and “murderers,” and flatly denied accounts from about a dozen women who accused him of past sexual misconduct or assault.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many voters also appeared to be undeterred by the release of a 2005 videotape from Access Hollywood in which Trump, on a hot mic, talked about grabbing women between the legs because celebrities “can do anything.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His relationship with Congress represents another uncertainty. Trump has openly feuded with Republican lawmakers such as House Speaker Paul Ryan. In other cases, Trump promised to create a SuperPAC that would go after his enemies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The election deals yet another bitter defeat to Clinton, 69, a former first lady and U.S. senator who had appeared to retain a modest lead in national polls heading into Election Day. Clinton, the first woman to run atop the ticket of a major political party, had cast her candidacy as an inclusive vision for the future. She pledged to devote new resources to restoring American infrastructure, to fight for gun safety measures, to fix a broken immigration system and to nominate judges to the Supreme Court who would overhaul the campaign finance system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clinton had been shadowed for more than a year by revelations she used a private email server to conduct State Department business. The FBI investigated her handling of classified information and determined that “no reasonable prosecutor” would have filed any criminal case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in the final weeks of the campaign, FBI Director James Comey dropped a bombshell. He notified Congress that the agency had discovered a new cache of emails and needed to sort through them, just 11 days before the election. Comey later announced the FBI had found nothing to change its analysis in the case, after polls between Clinton and Trump had tightened.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former Trump adviser Barry Bennett attributed the victory to the idea that Trump understood the mood of voters better than the political professionals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a testament to how angry they are at Washington, and Washington better hear it,” Bennett said. “Perhaps we got a little aligned too closely with business and not with the people. So maybe this is a shift back, which would be good for the party.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Though California was first in the U.S. to allow medical use, it follows Alaska, Colorado, Washington, Oregon and Washington, D.C. in legalizing recreational marijuana. The law goes into effect immediately and applies to people 21 and older.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Californians got their first chance to vote on whether to legalize marijuana in 1972, and they overwhelmingly said no. The state came close in 2010, when the final vote was 53.5 percent for and 46.5 percent against.
