We came out for PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE BERNIE SANDERS, who is no longer running ... and you CAN "Write Him In"... IN SOME STATES INCLUDING CALIFORNIA. Though we think the Democratic candidates are more sympathetic to the plight of the homeless and poor in the United States of America, ee know many who will go into the voting booth and vote for the party, or avoid voting for either Trump or Clinton, in favor of Jill Stein.
WHATEVER YOU DO, and we do hope you will vote, PLEASE VOTE FOR PROPOSITION HHH. We know it's complicated but it's the best thing going for the homeless at this point and WE MUST DO SOMETHING. No easy answers, and much to be determined, we know, but we BEG YOU - PLEASE!
*If you are HOMELESS and did not REGISTER TO VOTE IN THIS ELECTION, PLEASE REGISTER TO VOTE IN THE NEXT... YOU CAN VOTE WHILE HOMELESS... See our past posts and side bar for information!
DAILY NEWS - LA VOTERS GREEN LIGHT PROP HHH By Brenda Gazzar, Los Angeles Daily News
EXCERPT:
The proposition would raise $1.2 billion to create between 8,000 and 10,000 permanent supportive housing units for the city’s homeless — and those at risk of becoming so — as well as facilities for access to mental health counseling, addiction services and housing placement, according to supporters.
Proposition HHH garnered the support of about 76 percent of votes cast by the time all precincts had been counted on Wednesday, according to the Los Angeles County Registrar-Recorder/County Clerk’s office. It needs 66.67 percent to pass, a considerable threshold for a ballot crowded with other tax measures.
“Today we can look at the most urgent moral crisis facing our city and say that help is on the way,” said Elise Buik, president and chief executive officer of the United Way of Greater Los Angeles, in a statement.
