It needed two-thirds approval to win.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco voted heavily in favor of the bond with an 81.1 percent yes vote. Alameda County reported a 70.9 percent yes vote. Contra Costa County, the only jurisdiction where there was a concerted “No on RR” effort, registered a 59.5 percent yes vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those are numbers as of 11 a.m. Wednesday, but they’re not quite final. Here’s why: There are about 2 million voters in the three BART counties. Assuming a 75 percent turnout — which is close to the aggregate turnout for the three counties in 2012 — about 1.5 million people may have cast ballots in the election. So far, though, just over 966,000 ballots have been tallied in the race. There’s still a mathematical chance — a very small one, to be sure — that the hundreds of thousands of uncounted vote-by-mail and provisional ballots still out there could shift the outcome.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bond won wide backing during the campaign from business groups and private companies throughout the region, including most major sports franchises.

Steve Glazer and East Bay Times columnist Daniel Borenstein.

Some $300 million of the funds would be earmarked to help BART supplement its Fleet of the Future. With a 62.5 percent yes vote early Wednesday, the measure was falling short of the two-thirds approval it needs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bond vote comes at a moment when BART continues to struggle with a dramatic increase in ridership and frequent service problems that in the past year have included a broken rail in a San Francisco tunnel and an ultimately unsolved electrical problem that damaged dozens of train cars and caused a weeklong service disruption to the Pittsburg/Bay Point Station.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Glazer conceded last month that BART service would continue to deteriorate if the bond were rejected. He and the Times argued that voters should first replace several incumbents running for re-election to the BART Board of Directors and that the reconstituted board should craft a bond measure with stricter guarantees for how funds are spent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The results of the board elections are as of 11 a.m. Wednesday.

"content": "\u003cp>Faced with a vote they say will determine whether BART gets a quick start on a planned rebuild or sinks further into disrepair, a high-profile group of Bay Area elected officials gathered in downtown Oakland on Monday to plead for passage of the agency's $3.5 billion bond measure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom, East Bay Congresswoman Barbara Lee, San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee and Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf headlined a last-minute media event called to rally support for Measure RR.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We know that BART is old -- it's 44 years old this year -- and no one has made a major investment in getting it into a good state of repair,\" Schaaf said to a throng of reporters and a small group of bond supporters. \"We know that 450,000 Bay Area residents rely on BART every day to get to work. But don't forget that those of us who don't use BART are relying on it, too -- because people who ride the trains are not on the road for us exacerbating the unacceptable congestion that is choking the Bay Area.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While others talked about how the bond could pave the way for a major expansion of BART's capacity, Mayor Lee said he had a simple message for voters working through the unusually long and complex 2016 ballot. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Go to the last measure on the last page, all right?\" Lee said. \"We've got 25 measures in San Francisco, 17 state measures -- seek out RR and vote yes. ... Riding BART this morning, I gotta say, you look at all the faces of the people there and you wonder what will happen to all of us if we don't maintain a reliable Bay Area system.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure, on the ballot in Alameda, Contra Costa and San Francisco counties, needs to win two-thirds of the three counties' total vote to pass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>East Bay state Sen. Steve Glazer, some other local officials and the East Bay Times oppose the bond. They argue that in the wake of pay raises granted after a pair of 2013 strikes and amid continuing service problems and other woes they blame on poor planning, BART management can't be trusted to handle money from the bond. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Glazer has also campaigned against three board incumbents who voted for the labor contracts that settled the 2013 labor dispute. He supports a slate of candidates who say they'll try to take a tougher line with the agency's union -- reforming work rules they term wasteful and inefficient, for instance -- and develop a more tightly crafted bond measure that would be put before voters in a future election. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although no names were mentioned, one of the dozen or so officials who spoke took on Glazer's opposition directly. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I'm going to cut straight to the politics of this,\" said state. Sen. Mark Leno, D-San Francisco. \"To advocate a 'no' position on Measure RR without a viable, immediate alternative plan is merely irresponsible. Obstructionism is not a plan, and anger is not an answer. ... I really do implore everyone to vote yes, and if you hear anyone suggest otherwise, ask them, 'What is your plan?' We haven't got another four years to wait for another presidential election to come up with something else that may not be exactly the way one person wants it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Glazer's fellow Orindan, City Councilmember Amy Worth, supports the bond measure but said she understands voters' concerns. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Concerns about BART's management \"do present challenges to the voter, so they're kind of torn,\" Worth said. \"It's really incumbent upon the BART board to demonstrate that it will fulfill its commitment to the voters.\"\u003c/p>\n\n",

Gov. Gavin Newsom, East Bay Congresswoman Barbara Lee, San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee and Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf headlined a last-minute media event called to rally support for Measure RR.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We know that BART is old -- it's 44 years old this year -- and no one has made a major investment in getting it into a good state of repair,\" Schaaf said to a throng of reporters and a small group of bond supporters. \"We know that 450,000 Bay Area residents rely on BART every day to get to work. But don't forget that those of us who don't use BART are relying on it, too -- because people who ride the trains are not on the road for us exacerbating the unacceptable congestion that is choking the Bay Area.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While others talked about how the bond could pave the way for a major expansion of BART's capacity, Mayor Lee said he had a simple message for voters working through the unusually long and complex 2016 ballot. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Go to the last measure on the last page, all right?\" Lee said. \"We've got 25 measures in San Francisco, 17 state measures -- seek out RR and vote yes. ... Riding BART this morning, I gotta say, you look at all the faces of the people there and you wonder what will happen to all of us if we don't maintain a reliable Bay Area system.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Steve Glazer, some other local officials and the East Bay Times oppose the bond. They argue that in the wake of pay raises granted after a pair of 2013 strikes and amid continuing service problems and other woes they blame on poor planning, BART management can't be trusted to handle money from the bond. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Glazer has also campaigned against three board incumbents who voted for the labor contracts that settled the 2013 labor dispute. He supports a slate of candidates who say they'll try to take a tougher line with the agency's union -- reforming work rules they term wasteful and inefficient, for instance -- and develop a more tightly crafted bond measure that would be put before voters in a future election. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although no names were mentioned, one of the dozen or so officials who spoke took on Glazer's opposition directly. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I'm going to cut straight to the politics of this,\" said state. Sen. Mark Leno, D-San Francisco. \"To advocate a 'no' position on Measure RR without a viable, immediate alternative plan is merely irresponsible. Obstructionism is not a plan, and anger is not an answer. ... I really do implore everyone to vote yes, and if you hear anyone suggest otherwise, ask them, 'What is your plan?' We haven't got another four years to wait for another presidential election to come up with something else that may not be exactly the way one person wants it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Glazer's fellow Orindan, City Councilmember Amy Worth, supports the bond measure but said she understands voters' concerns. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Concerns about BART's management \"do present challenges to the voter, so they're kind of torn,\" Worth said. \"It's really incumbent upon the BART board to demonstrate that it will fulfill its commitment to the voters.\"\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Just pointing a finger at management or a labor contract isn’t going to be helpful in making sure the Bay Area continues to perform as a place.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The anti-bond forces have been led by state Sen. Steve Glazer, the former mayor of Orinda elected to the Legislature last year largely on the strength of his promise to try to ban BART labor strikes, and by East Bay Times columnist Daniel Borenstein and the paper’s editorial page.

Under that scenario, the additional annual tax for a home with an assessed value of $500,000 would be $45 a year near the outset of the bond program. The additional annual tax bill for a home with an assessed value of $1 million in 2035 would be around $175.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Measure RR would require a collective two-thirds Yes vote in the three counties to pass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Glazer \u003ca href=\"http://elections.kqed.org/article/11060910/steve-glazer-bart-bond-measure\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">has likened\u003c/a> the current board members to unruly children who must not be rewarded for bad behavior. He says if voters want change on BART, they ought to vote down the bond, vote out most incumbents and let a new board of directors “do it right” with a revised financing proposal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Borenstein and the East Bay Times have repeatedly denounced BART and the bond measure over the last several months.

The Times itself has editorialized against the measure not once but twice, saying residents of the three BART counties should vote “\u003ca href=\"http://www.eastbaytimes.com/2016/09/13/editorial-reject-barts-3-5-billion-bond-measure-east-bay-times/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hell no\u003c/a>” on the bond and labeling the proposal “\u003ca href=\"http://www.eastbaytimes.com/2016/10/28/editorial-reject-barts-measure-rr-high-pressure-sales-pitch/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a scam\u003c/a>.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rufus Jeffris, the Bay Area Council’s chief spokesman, said rhetoric like that could have an impact beyond Tuesday’s election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Sen. Glazer and others might argue that Measure RR should be defeated now, that reforms should be made, and then return with another measure in 2018,” he said in an email. “But decimating public opinion about the system could take years to repair and put BART is a position where 2018 isn’t a viable election.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wunderman said he recognizes BART leadership’s faults over the years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t disagree that BART management has been imperfect on some issues, getting into the past, but the solution is not to then blow up BART to prove a point, because it’s not going to fix itself,” he said. “You can’t disagree that the system needs investment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wunderman, who says he commutes to San Francisco from BART’s Pleasant Hill nearly daily, also argues the agency’s service, management and workers are getting a bad rap.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think BART management on the whole has done a great job,” Wunderman said. “Management is easy when everything works well and all you have to do is show up and go home at 5 o’clock. That’s not the story at BART. They’re playing a huge amount of catch-up and using chewing gum to fix parts. … I’ve been to the maintenance yards and seen what the workers do, and it’s actually very, very impressive. There’s a lot of spirit there, and I think it must be very dispiriting for people to do hard work and meaningful work and have it belittled.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He applauds the agency for its increased use of operating revenues — the money it gets from fares, parking fees, sales tax and other sources — to pay for long-term capital improvements. In its fiscal 2016-17 budget, adopted in June, the agency designated $193 million from its operating revenues for new rail cars, system repairs and other projects. That figure has grown from $6.7 million at the depth of the Great Recession in 2009 and $52 million five years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an interview last week, Sen.

After that, BART tried to get solar projects off the ground at the Lafayette and Orinda stations, but negotiations with the developer \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/2011/06/15/bart-holding-off-on-orinda-solar-carport-project/\" target=\"_blank\">fell through\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In December 2014, BART and SolarCity agreed to work together on solar power systems at up to five BART sites. Construction on the first system to come out of that collaboration was recently completed at the \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/09/12/you-can-count-on-it-at-some-point-new-bart-station-will-open/\" target=\"_blank\">soon-to-open\u003c/a> Warm Springs Station.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As we get these newer stations, that's one thing that we're always looking at, is how can we be more energy-efficient? How can we make these systems even better before we get them to the public?\" Filippi said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Lafayette system is expected to be installed by April 1, 2017 and operational by July 1, 2017. Filippi said the Antioch eBART station is on track to open in late 2017 or early 2018, but the solar panels should be ready to go by Oct. 1, 2017.\u003c/p>\n\n",
