ASKED AROUND TOWN
How did the election go for you? Mark Danckert Sales I wasn’t happy with the results, because I am a Republican. I was hoping that Proposition 19 would pass, because I want to tax marijuana. My wife’s vote negated my vote, though — she was against it.
Clay Sensiba Student It went pretty well. For the most part the outcomes were what I had hoped for and expected, so I’m happy.
Brad Hirst Real estate developer Nationally, I was very happy; statewide I was unhappy; and locally I was very, very happy.
Quality Assured in Every Step Leslie Pesout Retail As dissatisfied as everyone is with the economy, I was disappointed. I work in retail, so it is very important that it improves. There were quite a few things that passed that I feel could have been improved upon.

Mom Locally overall, I’m satisfied with the outcome. This election was a little different, because we have a new baby boy and I haven’t been able to follow the candidates and issues as closely as I usually do.
