Last week San Bernardino residents voted down a proposed measure to set police and firefighter salaries by collective bargaining and approved a change to the city charter to cease payment to terminated city employees while they wait for appeal of employment. San Bernardino's Measure Q, which would have set police and firefighter salaries by collective bargaining rather than setting salaries with the average of 10 similarly-sized cities, failed with a 55.13 percent No vote to a 44.87 percent Yes vote, all precincts reporting, according to the San Bernardino County Registrar of Voters as of Nov. 10. Measure R, which replaces the language in the city charter's Section 254 to provide that terminated city employees will no longer receive pay as they wait for a hearing before the Civil Service Board, passed with a 55.33 percent Yes vote and a 44.67 No vote. In the San Bernardino Community College District, Area 2 incumbent Joseph Williams won re-election to the seat against opponent Rafael Trujillo. Williams won re-election with a 52.68 percent vote, defeating Trujillo, who garnered a 47.32 percent vote. In the race for San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District, Division 3, Susan Longville won election with 29.41 percent of the vote. Opponents Melody Henriques McDonald had 20.43 percent of the vote; Wayne Hendrix had 20.73 percent of the vote; Steven Gutierrez had 9.06 percent of the vote; Joe Arnett had 7.80 percent of the vote; and Danny Tillman had 12.58 percent of the vote. Incumbent Mark Bulot won re-election to represent the San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District, Division 4 seat with a landslide 81.85 percent of the vote to opponent Janel Perez's 18.15 percent vote. Marc Steinorth won election to the vacant California State Assembly, District 40 seat with 56.07 percent of the vote, against opponent Kathleen Henry, who had 43.93 percent of the vote. Cheryl Brown won re-election to California State Assembly, District 47, with 57.36 percent of the vote against opponent Gil Navarro's 42.64 percent. Connie Leyva was elected with 61.01 percent of the vote to California State Senate, District 20. She ran against opponent Matthew Munson, who took 38.99 percent of the vote. In Congress, Pete Aguilar was elected with 51.36 percent of the votes to represent California's District 31 in the U.S. House of Representatives, having run against opponent Paul Chabot, who took 48.64 percent of the vote. The San Bernardino County Registrar of Voters website says as of Monday, Nov. 10, there are an estimated 156 mail ballots received at polling places on Election Day still to be counted and added to results; approximately 278 mail ballots and ballots cast at polling places on Election Day that were damaged and require duplication left to be counted and added to the results; and an estimated 14,931 various types of ballots including provisional ballots, mail ballots that require further signature review, and ballots cast that were damaged and require duplication to be counted and added to the results. Final Certified Results will be posted no later than Dec. 2.
