Sports which is a huge part of our lives, the golden state is one of just 2 in the country that are allowing competition and these High School Juniors worry it could impact their chances of playing in college. Its really stressful its really hard seeing teams are on the rest of the country who are playing games.

Plus one of the largest wildfires in. States history has now turned deadly. The latest on the firefight there coming up next. And theres growing debate over prop 17 which would allow parolees and convicted felons the right to vote hear from both sides of the issue that story and more coming up next story and more coming up next here on kron 4 news at night. Uber and lyft are like every big guy ive ever brought down. Prop 22 doesnt help their drivers it denies them benefits. 22 doesnt help women. It actually weakens Sexual Harassment laws, which are meant to protect them. Uber and lyft arent even required to investigate Sexual Harassment claims. I agree with the la times no on 22. Uber and lyft want all the power. So, show them the real power is you. Vote no on prop 22. The unfair money bail system. He, accused of rape. While he, accused of stealing 5. The stanford rapist could afford bail; got out the same day. The Senior Citizen could not; forced to wait in jail nearly a year. Voting yes on prop 25 ends this failed system, replacing it with one based on Public Safety. Because the size of your wallet shouldnt determine whether or not youre in jail. Vote yes on prop 25 to end money bail. Harleys convicted of felonies getting the right to vote thats the idea behind proposition 17 which it would affect 10s of thousands of californians some believe that gives parolee some dignity while others say it would prevent demise is the victims. Christina pascucci explores both sides of the issue. According to the california state constitution people on parole for felony convictions are not permitted to vote. The proposition 17 would change that i was convicted in 2009 for which i still my innocence frying or cheese served 10 years behind bars, im one of the nearly 50,000 in california who have completed their prison sentence yet dont have the ortiz says since hes been released last year hes mentored use pursued 2 degrees and worked multiple jobs while catching up on lost time with his family we cannot be labeled for worst mistake and that we made in life i pay taxes. I volunteer i give back to my community. The ones harm. But im no longer that person, the average convicted felon serves at least 3 years parole after release f rain will likely serve to in the free world sort of model person who was working on himself yet is still disenfranchised the Anti Recidivism Coalition says vote. Yes on prop 17 air sea works to end mass incarceration, Los Angeles County supervisors hilda solis and sheila kill also say yes on 17. They authored a motion asking for the county support by the florida parole commission. They said that overall the city does a rate based on all released inmates at one time was 33. 1 while the recidivism rate for released prisoners who were given their civil rights back the ability to vote student 11 . But theres also strong opposition from victims of crimes senator jim nielsen says giving back right before parole is complete is wrong. Youre of grieving victims, theyre getting victimized twice issue here is justice society. And victims of the crime done. Theres irv just desserts that the sentence has been fully serve some of them are murderers and rapists. Very very serious crime. These are not low level offenders senator neilson believes this is a political ploy and says vote no on 17 so everything is now changing from being on the rights of the victims and the Rights Society to be rights of the ones who committed crimes and i think thats very much in the wrong direction of this is about really one thing democratic voters crime victims united also opposes prop 17. Despite repeated attempts to reach them they never applied.

A bizarre story out of North Carolina tonight, a woman goes to early vote to cast her ballot but has denied because shes listed as being dead Election Officials say this is an error that is to blame. But as Michelle Wolf reports the clarification to not make things any less frightening. When i went up to get my information the woman said youre trouble so most of us said. I cant imagine why. And she said let me find out and then we that she told me we both looked each other she said. It says you did have leonard and his wife, marianne have voted in every election since they moved to high point almost 4 decades ago. Every 2 years they vote early at the deep river rec center. But this year mary ann was not listed as a registered voter she was just flabbergasted by the fact that she was off the roll urias confused and worried. Oh my goodness, this is a year when so much is going on and so much has happened. And so many people have died the thought of possible voter fraud. Popped into my mind after several polls to the county and state board of elections the leonards found out a clerical error caused marions mixup the state sent a list of people who passed away to Guilford County and there happens to be a woman with a similar name and birth marianne it is just a warning to people to be cautious if youre mailing in your vote you would never know this and tells fox 8 he and his wife will be sure to look up the registration next time and encourage others to do the same so you dont want to go on election day and find out that youre not eligible for election. That was Michelle Wolf reporting for us tonight fortunately in this case because the woman was voting early. She had time to re register and did get to vote if the couple had waited until election day or voted absentee her vote likely would not have been counted even more reason to vote early that way when things pop up, it can take care of it as quickly as was just like a good lesson in life like leave yourself more time so when things are going your way you got some time to fix it just little from edu thats true. Thank wiser i appreciate his advice. Thank you. Were giving you some time to get ready for some weather events thats going to take place in the next 12 hours. Meteorologist Mabrisa Rodriguez is here now with what we can expect on sunday him a brace of hay. Theyre just cnn jonathan we can expect. Not only a wind advisory going into effect sunday afternoon through around monday morning but also tracking a red flag warning as well we have 2 red flag warnings going into effect in the first will impact the north bay mountains in the east bay hills including the diablo range starting at 11 oclock sunday morning through Tuesday Morning for the rest of us in the bay area were also going to be under that threat of high fire danger concerns because of the very windy dry conditions that will go into effect until around sunday night through monday morning. So we have to red flag warnings lets try the winds out there right now as you head out the door for your saturday night pretty calm conditions along the coast. A little bit breezy though in the teens in double digit range for those of you in oakland and fairfield but tomorrow the big win storm will arrive first for the north bay mountains. Early sunday morning. So that is one that red flag warning is going to go into effect there for the east bay hills and diablo range and valleys youll start to notice winds increasing until around your sunday afternoon for the rest of the bay area 20 to 30 mile per hour sustained winds will arrive by sunday night peaking during the overnight hours through monday morning or even our coastal areas could see gusts upwards of 50 Miles Per Hour or less and it is going to drop relative humidity significantly for most of our sunday from now until then though by sunday morning. Were going to notice a lot of moisture out there. 80th to 90th percentile range, thanks to that deep marine layer, but then look at how would just evaporates by sunday afternoon because of those northerly and easterly winds in the Single Digits already for valleys and highest peaks for those of you in the north bay and even by around sunday night even the east bay valleys could see single digit relative humidity so little to no moisture. Thats why we have those red flag warnings in place even though were not really tracking hot temperatures in fact tomorrow were going to notice below average highs right now 50s and 60s turning into 40s and 50s overnight and temperatures tomorrow below average with widespread 60s and 70s until we gradually begin to warm up for most of this upcoming workweek our inland valleys could be near freezing by around monday through wednesday morning during the overnight hours so just keep that in mind but overall were going to be about 5 to 10 degrees above average with the warmer and drier outlook as well even for your halloween a week from today and i know for allergy suffers like myself, the wind speeds really going to wreak havoc on the personally in addition to that so just not a good day overall so just plan ahead be safe and make sure to batten down the hatches because its going to very windy day tomorrow.
