On the eve of the california primaries, a flurry of last minute campaigning here in the bay area, including for proposition 1, the multibillion dollar measure to address Mental Health and homelessness in our state. Anne makovec is following the campaign for us. Anne, this is a plan the governor is really hanging his hat on. You probably have seen his campaign ads for it. Theres no question that homelessness and Substance Abuse are Serious Problems in california. Prop 1 would overhaul the way the state spends billions of dollars to try to address them. Its a 6. 3 billion bond that would help the state create more treatment beds for people struggling with addiction and Mental Health problems. The yes campaign estimates 6,800 treatment slots and almost 4,400 Housing Units could be constructed with the money raised. This is the only statewide measure on the ballot and its a big part of the governors plan to get people off the streets into treatment. He joined San Franciscos mayor and District Attorney today to try to get out the vote. We need to stabilize people. We need to deal with the underlying reasons theyre out on the streets and sidewalks in the first place, the reason theyre selfmedicating with drug or alcohol addictions, with bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and so many other challenges people face. Housing is the essential element thats been missing too one. Opponents interrupted the governor at todays news conference. We spoke with a member of the no campaign who said it would divert millions of dollars away from already effective Mental Health services. Not only do the vast majority of unhoused people not have a serious Mental Health condition, they therefore would not even qualify for the services under proposition 1 which require a serious Mental Health diagnosis. Opponents also say its too expensive at a time when the states budget deficit is soaring. The measure needs a simple majority of the vote to pass. The other hot statewide race on the ballot narrowing it down to the top two candidates hoping to represent california in the u. S. Senate, congressman adam schiff making a couple stops in the bay area today trying to shore up support for his campaign, including one in san jose. My feeling is run scared or unopposed. Im not unopposed. So were going to run hard right up to 8 00 tomorrow night. Then i hope its on to november. Here is his competition to fill that seat of the late senator dianne feinstein. In a poll taken by uc berkeley last week shows republican and former l. A. Dodger steve garvey out in front of his democratic rivals, but with the margin of error it is a statistical dead heat between garvey and schiff right now had. Garvey is widely expected to be the underdog in november. Well be following it. Thanks, anne. California voters have returned a very low percentage of mailin ballots so far and many of tomorrows races could hinge on which campaigns are able to get their supporters to turn out. We want them to feel like they have a voice. They have a power, have power in impacting and creating the change that they want to see. Coming up at 5 30, well introduce you to some bay area residents that are going door to door encouraging their neighbors to make their voices heard. Meanwhile former President Trump winning a big victory on the eve of super tuesday, the u. S. Supreme court has unanimously ruled he will stay on the ballots of all 50 states. As Nicole Scanga reports, the high court rejected an attempt by colorado to disqualify the former president because of his actions on january 6th. Reporter former President Donald Trump is praising the Supreme Court for its unanimous decision to restore his name to all 2024 president ial primary ballots. I think it will go a long way toward bringing our country together. Reporter voters in colorado had tried to remove trump from their states ballot. They argued an insurrection clause in the constitutions 14th amendment disqualified him from Holding Office because of his attempts to undo his 2020 election loss culminating in the january 6th attack on the capitol, but monday the u. S. Supreme court ruled only congress can decide how and when this constitutional provision is implemented. And the rationale here really is we dont want states to be able to do this. You heard the justices coalesce around the idea that were very worried states could do it alone, create this kind of patchwork when it comes to federal elections. Reporter todays decision leaves open the possibility congress could refuse to certify the election of a candidate who participated in insurrection. The court also side stepped the issue of insurrection altogether. The Supreme Courts decision today did not exonerate him. They did not say that january 6th wasnt an insurrection and they did not say that he didnt engage in insurrection. Reporter the Supreme Court has agreed to weigh in on whether trump can be tried criminally for his actions on january 6th. Next month the court will hear arguments about whether trump is entitled to broad immunity from prosecution from acts allegedly committed while in office. Todays ruling is a big victory for former President Trump. We spoke to cbs news director of elections and surveys, anthony salvanto, about how it might weigh on the minds of voters. Reporter the larger question how this plays into who can protect democracy, which is going to be a central argument in this campaign, look at this. You get just under half of voters who say they think donald trump tried to stay in office after 2020 by illegal means. These folks are overwhelmingly voting for joe biden. However, the folks who think he tried to stay through constitutional processes oar didnt plan to stay, these folks are overwhelmingly voting for donald trump. That sets up a really central split in the campaign and i think that plays into the larger narrative of how people view both what happened in 2020 and whats going to happen, what could happen going forward. Following the Supreme Court ruling, maine withdrew its trump ballot ban also based on a violation of the 14th amendment. Taking a live look at san jose where a new state bill could make it easier to build interim housing for people who are unhoused. Leaders announced the proposed bill at one of the housing sites. It would help families find a path towards permanent housing. The opportunity to stabilize someone who has gone through a traumatic experience of being homeless in our community and get them connects to the Supportive Services that really transform lives.

Lets shake up the senate. With democrat katie porter. Im katie porter and i approve this message. A Sonoma County sheriffs deputy is hospitalized in Critical Condition and a suspect is dead after a pursuit and shooting in the Early Morning hours just off the southern edge of santa rosa. Wilson walker has the very latest on the investigation which stretches over two miles. We hear guns around here. Its not unusual, but to hear them repetitive like that meant that it was different. Reporter it was a little after midnight when the gunfire rolled onto tim dimmocks stretch of stony point road and he knew immediately it was something serious. It was more a semiautomatic bang, bang, bang, bang, multiple rounds and then return fire in the same rhythm. So you knew it was a gunfight. Our investigators are still working to put together that timeline to determine how many shots exactly were fired by both the deputies and the suspect and where those shots occurred at. Reporter sheriffs deputies were responding to reports of a man with a rifle and almost as soon as they saw the suspects car, they reported gunfire, though its not clear who all was shooting at that point. From there a pursuit that stretched about 2 1 2 miles before a crash into this fence. This is where dimmock heard the shooting he described and this is where the suspect in the pursuit was pronounced dead. We are still investigating the exact cause of death. We are currently working on notifying the suspects next of kin. Reporter as for the deputies who were hurt, one was reportedly shot in the leg, but another suffered a more serious injury. One deputy received an injury to the leg. Two deputies received injuries to their hands. The fourth deputy received a head injury and remains in Critical Condition in a local hospital.

The protocol for such an investigation is that a Partner Agency takes over, so that now being handled by the Santa Rosa Police department. Meanwhile in Alameda County the effort to recall District Attorney pamela price took a big step forward today. The group behind the recall says theyve submitted enough signatures to county officials to qualify for the november ballot. The group save Alameda County for everyone says theyve collected more than 127,000 signatures for the petition. The county registrar of voters now has ten days to validate those signatures. If everything checks out, the board of supervisors will schedule a special recall election. We shouldnt have to do this, but for the safety of our community, safety of our children, safety of our businesses, this is something that had to be done. The recall Group Accuses price of failing to enforce the law, prosecute criminals and hold perpetrators accountable. Price supporters accuse the recall signature gatherers of misleading people into signing and asked state attorney general rob bonta to investigate it. The recall group denied those allegations. Price supporters released this statement saying in part, this effort reduces our strive for a just and more equitable justice system. Nearly a foot of fresh snow in 24 hours from the latest storm brings the total number to more than 75 inches. The winds are crazy. I can barely get out to the snow berm. Lake tahoe, the snow is so deep a car is buried. I havent seen that much snow in a long time. Earlier in the show we showed kelsi and our photographer driving back home and you could see the snow that towered well above our live truck. And thats after it settled, the weight of the new snow falling on top of the old snow compressing it down. Were talking about just a lot of snow and wind, 190mile an hour wind gusts reported at one of the peaks above palisades, still some snow flying, but it will gradually begin to diminish. What has accumulated has been substantial, over 10 feet of snow recorded at sugar bowl, soda springs just short of 10 feet, 8 feet for palisades tahoe and the Central Snow Lab picked up over 6 feet of snow through the duration of this system. It was a big rainmaker for the bay area. We still have a few showers this evening, generally very light and north of the golden gate moving west to east, not a whole lot of additional measurable rainfall on top of whats already accumulated. Lets look at rainfall totals over the past several days since the rain on thursday. About 2 3 of an inch in san jose, almost 2 inches for both los gatos and morgan hill, about 1 1 2 inches for livermore, under 1 inch of total rainfall for fremont, almost 2 inches of rain for San Francisco over the course of the past 96 hours or so. In the north bay, the amounts are heftier, around almost 2 inches of rain for novato to 1 1 3 for santa rosa, but a decent amount of rain, fortunately falling in waves. Lets talk about how much rain well get in the next couple days. Futurecast shows showers for the north bay heading through tonight. The activity will be pretty sparse tuesday, showers more miss than hit, but they are possible. Grab the umbrella just to be on the safe side, but its about a 20 to 30 chance of rain until wednesday morning. We see the next round of showers headed our way. This one is tricky because its associated with a storm system meandering out over the ocean, looks close enough to send light to moderate rain showers across the bay area wednesday. Total rainfall amounts will be modest. There will be some breaks in the cloud cover wednesday. So solar Electricity Generation might be a bit above average for this time of year assuming we get the breaks in the cloud cover wednesday. How much rain . Generally less than a quarter inch is what we anticipate going through the wednesday time frame. Were getting a new model runin as we speak. Farther down the line well be in the wet weather pattern. The six to tenday outlook, a good chance of wetter than normal pattern. The eight to 14day outlook shows a return closer to normal rain chances as we head towards midmarch. Its still an active sevenday forecast. Lets look at the details here and every other Day Rain Chances are kind of in the forecast for us, chance of showers tomorrow, a better chance wednesday, thursday and friday dry, temperatures warming to the mid, maybe upper 60s friday. It wouldnt be a weekend in 2024 without a pretty decent chance of rain. We have that in the forecast saturday, a dry second half of the weekend. Try to push outdoor plans this weekend to sunday because yet another chance of rain heads our way monday of next week. None of these are looking like torrential rainfall events, but its a generally wet pattern.
