The early absentees tell us a few things, and Chris Bowman, a GOP consulant who is generally right on his projections, gave us his hit, and here’s how it looks:
Prop. A, the parcel tax for schools, is going to be very close; it’s at 60 percent now and that will be a squeaker.
F and G are over. F lost, G won.
Sandoval may come in first, or at worst a close second, and that race will go to a November runoff.
Prop. E (fuck PG&E) is going to win.
There are some early returns from Marin, and it looks pretty good for Leno — he’s at 31 percent in Marin, with Migden at a low 22.4 and Nation just at 45. So it’s early, but the odds of Leno pulling this out are getting better.
