To be honest, I havent really payed much attention to local politics in Richmond. In the last few days Ive been reading up on it, though, and its fascinating. Chevron just spent $3M here trying to buy the city council after losing a $90M lawsuit with the city. Despite the money they poured into the campaign, their candidates were completely swept yesterday by the progressives who campaigned on just $100k. The city council has been bitterly divided, but the most ridiculous obstructionist member, Corky Boozè, has now been defeated. Check out this Maddow segment on it and this great article from east bay express: eastbayexpress/oakland/chevron-bids-to-retake-richmond/Content?oid=4103391
