Is it just me, or is something a bit “off” with both races for supervisor? The percentage of the vote for District 2:


Jim Dantona: 53.52%


Michael Woody: 46.48%


Then we have the percentages won for District 4:


Jimmy Paulding:53.52%


Alan Verdin:46.48%


Coincidence much? Seriously, what are the chances of that? The math is just a bit over my head.

We know pauldings about useless he’s no good, and I’m guessing dantona is gonna be right behind him, too bad we could have used fresh faces.

Curious, how the wide majority of SLO county voted for Steve Hilton, arguably the “most” Republican candidate on the massive ticket. Yet, the “most” leftist candidates on the BOS ticket were elected by large margins.


Of course, this includes Mz Cano counting her votes and deciding her own election…

I believe the two top Republicans, Hilton and Bianco, got about 45% of SLO voting, while the five top Democrats got about 50%. Also, Ms. Cano has repeatedly noted that she recuses herself from counting ballots that her name is on. If you have other information you should notify the authorities or the press immediately. Also, both supervisor races had only two candidates so “most leftist” seems inaccurate.
