Off the I-15

Supporters of Measure D spent Tuesday braving the elements outside polling location.

Within their legal rights – for the most part – fire fighters and police officers, off-duty and out of uniform, checked voter roles to see if their supporters had shown up. Fire Chief Darrell Jauss was also conducting some informal exit polling of his own.

Jauss guaged support based on the number of people who drove by his RV parked 100 feet away from the polling location and smiled, waved, gave a thumbs up or sneered. He said based on his polling, never more than three out of 10 people sneered, leaving Jauss to believe Measure D would pass.

With three of 16 precincts reporting, the yes folks lead the Measure D race, but not by the two-thirds majority they need.
