Updated: Incumbents Win Most Berkeley Races

Wednesday November 03, 2010 - 01:36:00 AM

Official Alameda County election results as of 1:30 a.m. show incumbent Councilmembers Jesse Arreguin, Gordon Wozniak and Linda Maio winning re-election in Districts 4, 8 and 1 respectively. Councilmember Kriss Worthington got 49.79% of the first place votes for District 7, so he’ll be trying to pick up about 6 more votes on Friday when third place finisher Ces Rosales’ votes are added to votes for Worthington or George Beier. 

Measure R (advisory downtown planning) passed, with 64.21% Yes votes. Measures S and T (marijuana tax and regulation) both passed. 

In the Berkeley school board race, incumbent Board President Karen Hemphill will be joined by Josh Daniel and Leah Wilson. Both Measure H (the parcel tax) and Measure I (bonds) passed with large majorities.
