Tom Fudge : Yesterday's state and local elections were overshadowed by the presidential race. California had no governor's race, no U.S. Senate elections. And the race for mayor of San Diego was decided months ago during the primary.
But San Diegans choose a new City Attorney. And they chose three new members of the San Diego City Council.
At the state level, Californians reinstated their ban on same-sex marriage by passing a constitutional amendment that nullifies a Supreme Court decision. They passed a measure aimed at improving animal welfare on California farms. They voted to spend $9 billion on high-speed rail. And it looks like they narrowly approved a new plan for redistricting.
