Election
continued from page 1A
focus on injecting the city’s ongo
ing transportation plan with more
alternatives to building roads and
encouraging more cars.
Environmental concerns, such
as saving the Amazon headwater
and preventing piping, drilling
and pumping, are also on her
agenda.
Ron “Misha” Seymour, an ac
tivist candidate for the Ward 3 seat
who received 5.8 percent of the
vote, said that issues regarding po
lice violence and lack of mirth in
the city will still be outstanding.
“There were lots of people
coming up to me saying that ‘you
were the only one who addressed
issues important to me,’” he said.
Torrey held on to his landslide
victory for mayor Wednesday, gar
nering 69 percent of votes.
But whether or not he will be
paid for his trouble is still up in
the air.
While it was not passing as of
Tuesday night, Measure 20-29,
the city councilor and mayor
compensation measure, was pass
ing Wednesday with 51.3 percent
in favor and 48.6 percent op
posed.
Ballot measures underwent a
few upsets, but many were still
very close. An official at the Lane
County Elections office confirmed
that as of Wednesday afternoon,
the “vast majority” of ballots had
been counted, but some ballots
were still trickling in.
Authorizing EWEB to build a
fiber-optic network and enter the
telecommunications industry,
Measure 20-30 passed with a mar
ginal lead, with 53.5 percent of
voters in favor and 48.6 percent
opposed.
Voters declined to fund the
construction of new police and
fire stations, voting against Mea
sure 20-31 by 53.4 percent to 46.5
percent.
They did vote to provide Eu
gene schools with more funding,
passing Measures 20-28 and 20
33 decisively. The 4J school dis
trict will receive $27 million dol
lars over five years, and the Bethel
district will receive about the
same amount from school bonds.
The voter turnout was over 50
percent.
Election results were based on
a 55.8 percent voter turnout in
Lane County.
