Check out what local attorney and former Newsweek cover boy John Corcoran saw on the streets of Marin County the other day: a Golden Gate Transit bus supporting both Carole Migden and Mark Leno for the same office.
Perhaps the other candidate, Joe Nation, could buy the ad space on the right side of this bus?
The election is just a month away - things are only just getting started…

The Marin Independent Journal is trying to do the best it can in this Internet Age. That means putting content online and maybe allowing for a reader poll on some topic of the day.
Last week, IJ editor/writer Brad Breithaupt wrote a piece about the sprawling 3rd Senate District involving “incumbent Senator Carole Migden and her two challengers, Assemblyman Mark Leno and former [A]ssemblyman Joe Nation.”
Readers were allowed to cast their vote for whomever they favored until someone at the IJ cancelled it. Why? Check it:
“Due to suspected ballot-box stuffing, results of the poll will not appear. You dirty rascals!”
Thusly:

Appears is if more than one person repeatedly voted for a particular candidate and, so much so, the results got all screwy. Apparently, “cookies” were involved.
Now, who would do such a thing? (If only Marin County had its own Matier and Ross to get to the bottom of this!)
Can’t we all get along?
