The City of Sausalito has a group of locals that is dedicated to raising $16 million in a local bond measure to fund a new Police and Fire house.
This group, along with the City Council, has managed to get this item approved for a special "mail-in ballot" election in August.
I don't think I am the only resident that suspects this method was chosen because it would be the most easily influenced and manipulated. They can hand deliver ballots to all those known to support the project and nothing prevents them from hanging around until the voting papers are completed to the satisfaction of the proponents.
This is not right in Union votes and it is not right here. Sausalito residents deserve a better process.
