A new poll of likely voters across five Bay Area counties shows the Regional Transit Measure to save public transit has a clear path to victory in November.
The survey was conducted by EMC Research among 1,700 likely voters across Alameda, Contra Costa, San Francisco, San Mateo and Santa Clara Counties.
It found 54 percent support among likely voters for the sales tax, which would fund long-term operations for major Bay Area transit agencies.
Of course, that’s also who will suffer the most if the Bay Area transit network is unfunded and degraded.
We cannot have an affordable Bay Area that supports working people, seniors, and our economy without public transit.”
