  To figure out who is winning on election night it’ll help to think of the presidential selection process as a huge game of craps.
  Wait, what’s that? When you think of politics you already use a similar word?
  No matter, in this analogy, the connection isn’t jubilation or soul-crushing loss. It’s data. Specifically, as events unfold in both games – dice and presidential election watching – you’re going to be bombarded by numbers. Your challenge is to sort

• Healthcare groups dive into property tax ballot fight, eyeing public health money

  20-10-2020 22:25
  
  By Angela Hart | Kaiser Health News
  A November ballot initiative to raise property taxes on big-business owners in California is drawing unconventional political support from healthcare power players and public health leaders.
  They see Proposition 15 as a potential savior for chronically underfunded local health departments struggling to respond to the worst public health crisis in more than a century. The initiative would change California’s property tax system to tax some commercial prop

  WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump shunned formal debate practice Tuesday and was heading instead for another of his big rallies, two days ahead of the final presidential debate that may be his last, best chance to alter the trajectory of the 2020 campaign. Democrat Joe Biden took the opposite approach, holing up for debate prep.

  Way back when humans lived in unlit caves – which it looks like we may do again soon in California – housing was fairly simple. No cave-dwelling dictator commanded which people, and how many, would live in each cave, and pay what rent, or carved out special treatment for “specified subcategories.”
  But such coercion is liberally applied these days in state lawmakers’ attempt to repair the damage they have for decades inflicted on California’s housing market wit

  The bad news is that recovery has been very slow, especially in comparison to most other states. While California’s unemployment rate has dipped to 11%, it’s still one of the nation’s highest and in September, 1.6 million fewer Californians were employed than in February, bef

  When Stuart Sternberg retired from the investment firm Goldman Sachs in 2002, he cast his eye toward buying a Major League Baseball franchise. A Brooklyn native, Sternberg was born too late to watch a Dodgers game at Ebbets Field, but he named one of his sons after his favorite pitcher, Sandy Koufax. Koufax’s number 32 wound its way into his email address. Unsurprisingly, Sternberg looked into buying the Dodgers before the franchise was sold to Frank McCourt in 2004.
