That according to a campaign office manager I just spoke with. My guess is that the measure started out with an overwhelming majority in favor, but that the political establishment mostly lining up against it, the money being spent and the attack ads being put out by the opposition, are eating into that majority. I just hope they do not eat into it enough to prevent a victory on November 2.
Prop. B opponents have really turned on Jeff Adachi for attacking their sacred cow. I saw one comment that there's no way the left-wing public defender will get the Harvey Milk endorsement because of this (even though he's running unopposed). One of the fliers that arrived on my doorstep proclaims in big bold letters that "Jeff Adachi makes $196,000 a year". I was delighted to see it, because this shortsighted (on their part!) line of attack can only help the libertarian cause by further raising public awareness of inflated government employee salaries.
