Since Debora Allen was elected to the BART Board of Directors in 2016, she has been pushing hard to improve the system. She works to improve accountability, rider experience, and infrastructure while being fiscally responsible.

It's not easy. The Bay Area Rapid Transit system is a very large, slow moving and bureaucratic system. Many other BART board members have liberal viewpoints and different priorities. In addition, urban board members (the majority) are more interested in building transit village housing on BART property, while suburban members are more concerned about providing parking for riders.    . . .
  

 

In 2019, delegates to the California Republican Party convention will consider the adoption of a new party platform. That process begins with the election of 80 platform committee members, one from each of California's 80 assembly districts, by the CRP delegates from each district.

The full platform committee of over 200 members includes those members elected by Assembly district, every GOP officeholder and nominee for California State Assembly and State Senate, and most of the elected CAGOP leadership.
