With us on election day weve got the white house behind us and in front of us. The decision on this election day when millions of americans have already made up their minds. Yeah, weve got lots to talk about this morning lot of questions too about whats going to happen as the ballots. Our county tonight and into the days that follows and joining us to discuss more about that is Washington Post political reporter philip above phillip. Thank you so much for joining us today. So i read your article counting votes isnt cheating. It was a really nice breakdown of the entire process, what motivated you to write this in the first place. One of these were hearing particular from President Trump and his allies is this that by allowing both county and go on past today and wednesday, potentially isnt for week or so that theyre somehow something nefarious or or or or wrong about that when in fact it simply is the case that votes always take allow Council Members were able predict whos going to win a state earlier than weekend uncounted votes. California for example, we dont feel pretty safe in saying you know for joe biden today we could probably make that prediction even before we talk all the boats but the whole county and self always goes on for days or weeks after an should be considered normal. You were acquitted get to a San Francisco, 49 ers game like lets say were watching the super bowl and we were getting the results from different quarters and not in order explain what thats like as we watch the Election Results come in. Its one of the things to think about when youre considering Election Results is everyones already voted all of the scoring if you will has already been done right if you compare it to the super bowl we watch super bowl from start to finish and enjoy the drama. What happens in game since the start and really enjoy the drama. This years game as much stuck with that but you get my point is however we took all the scoring and took it out of work and i just said he was sentenced score touchdowns 4 field goals for another thats another field goal people see if this goes winning 20 nothing but of course thats not happening. The simple steps end up losing the super bowl it was only because i presented the results in that order it seemed as though see if this bill was going to win the game so this is the way when we consider how vote counting is done we just get things at random packets we sort of create in our minds this sense of drama line of own luck so much coming back from high thats not really what it is all it is a function of when the votes are actually be then maybe nobody should be counting. It before its done like wide. We see associate press we see different people call the vote. Why dont we just wait until its all counted in which that could take days. Right well, the reason for that quite frankly is because President Trump understands that this year there are a lot of people who voted by mail obviously because of the coronavirus pandemic and he understands that to the extent he can limit the counting of those votes, those are homes that are more likely going to favor former Vice President joe biden so if he can introduce and skepticism and doubt about those votes suggested maybe they shouldnt be counted and hes essentially tossing a mostly boats which are going to his opponent thats a strategy, its been obvious for months now the courts have largely sort of rejected that idea the Supreme Court has rejected most such remains to be seen what happens after election day and obviously it is i was on 2018 in florida for example down from scene claim others from going on in florida we need that you dont call a senate race by the results are happen on Election Night. But the vote counting went ahead there was no evidence of fraud republican one anyways we just need to let all of voting happened before jumping, you know just jump back to your football insisting that the election be called. After the end of Election Night and not counting those ballots. The department legally cast a short of like calling the game at halftime and then claiming that any points that are scored during the 2nd half is somehow. Cheating you wrote its about something called the red mirage. And the idea that President Trump could very well be leading in the results on Election Night but then that could change over time as all the votes tabulated talk a little bit more about that. Yes all certain for example in the states of wisconsin michigan pennsylvania, the donald trump will have a sizable lead after the in person voting is done today because one thing weve seen pulling an early vote returns is that the people who said theyre going to go and vote at the polling place today are much more likely to be trump supports people who voted by mail order to exit here on early much more likely to be biden supporters so in those 3 states, wisconsin michigan pennsylvania. They are starting to count ballots until today. So if you mailed your bow and sylvania theyre only an open that today and start counting it today and thats going to lot of times got up there by boat or you got scan results over the next few days and were going to see more and more results coming from those 3 states so tonight it may look like donald trump as a massive lead pennsylvania but thats just because whats being counted. So far is mostly people who are you voting today who tend to be more likely to beat trump supports thats whats been called the red mirage this mirage as this massive tree in hand. And thats really the message he wants promote that that any further for the most of the county after that point person out trying to steal away which frankly film how long have you been covering elections. Id say its you know the real question is what happens in florida and georgia right mean if donald trump loses florida if he loses georgia elections joe biden going to win if he also stated obviously one in 2016 is a whole different path for it comes down to figuring out you know how canceling a vote of the week announced its going to be a long intense. Well, i mean how long have you been doing politics, im assuming youve been doing this for years. I wanted to know your perspective on. Is this the most bizarre or most historic or most something election youve ever seen in your life as a rough or as a reporter. Yeah, its the most it is it is totally in fitting with 2020 that this election plays out the way that it s. Let me ask you quickly uh a lot has been made about the mail in vote and how its rife with fraud and Everything Else and for people that are may be new to voting or maybe have been confused by some of the mixed messaging thats out there. The idea of mail in voting is not a new one and its one thats been exercised. Fairly efficiently in a number of states over the years i should there be problems particularly with this year. Were has a proven to work. Yeah theres been no sign that theres been any sort of effort to do some sort of rampant systemic fraud using mail in ballots again Donald Trumps goal here is to try and introduce doubt up those ballots. So that he has an easier time, jack and i you know i lived in california for years i said at asked about it and that in turn every questions about the referee allegations of fraud it was complicated process. Im sure most of your viewers are aware there simply isnt evidence that there is rampant voter fraud. Yes, there are random scatter occasions a voter fraud thicker their stamped out a part of the thing is that with me on out we have very robust systems to try and detect that sort of fraud thats why a lot about it you get thrown out now about different enough out of an abundance of caution that fraud might see them there just is no evidence of fraud happens of any significance whatsoever and thats really important thing for people might still as we look at crazy prop that since you seem to like the sports analogies one of them is that Something Like hes going to happen in florida is going to be in the balance and theres going to be some kind of. Mystery to or some kind of snafu what do you think the odds are of well i think that anyone who bets on that is absolutely someone whos around in the year thats exactly what happened. You know its something were going say yes his do you things happen every election cycle. I think what know and most americans are hoping for is a fairly quick resolution here i think what most americans should be prepared for is that we may not be so lucky. Okay well well be here through the night into the morning, im sure you will too pulling an allnighter to give you the results and we appreciate joining us. Of course it was philip bump of the Washington Post will take a quick break and be right back. As a nurse, ive faced the fear of being stretched too thin to do my job right. And its not Just Health Care workers. Our teachers and school staff are going the extra mile for our kids. Our firefighters are taking on unthinkable missions to keep us safe. How can we keep giving billions in tax breaks to rich corporations when our communities need that money . Prop 15 closes corporate loopholes and invests in our schools, health care, and public safety. Help us do our jobs. Vote yes on 15. Hours into the polls being open and weve been monitoring your voting this here in the bay area and around the country at kron fours will tran has been out at the locations there in Contra Costa County since the polls first opened up for voters, hows it going. Well. A steady stream of people coming in despite covid19 a lot of people are Still Deciding i wanted to go to the booth it feels personal. It feels right to them that they are standing here just them and their conscience and they are voting in. They actually started a few minutes before it opened up at 7 oclock in the morning. There was a line so if people are still doing it old school way. The matter how you do it whether you drop it off in a drop box or you do it here. Scott kind of pastic the assistant registrar of voters in Contra Costa County. He is sure is everybody. It will be counted and it will be 100 accurate it will be 100 accurate and every qualified dollar we receive is going to be counted. Thats going to take us a few days to do we commit every voter that if you cast your ballot in are notable voter who were counting your votes how long will it take for the results to come back well so tonight were going to issue a report at 8 oclock thats going to have a probably more than half of the votes that are going that will be counted this election in that very first report that will be before we even get any returns from the polling places so those are all the vote by mail ballots that we received through halloween. He said this is her 6th president ial election and whats the turnout. This is the first one obviously with covid19 more or less or the same amount of people. Well theres really multiple questions and their overall that are not here is is huge. Rivals 2008 and from my experience, but the type of voting is the whats different. We probably were going to probably end up with a 90 vote by mail from a turnip or the percentage of the vote counted. 90 of it will be vote by mail and the other 10 will be people voting. Person like they are today which is not what its normally its cool higher than it normally is about 6040 60 of vote by mail and 40 at the polls, but thats been changing over the last 2 years as more and more people chose and a vote by mail or id be remiss if i didnt ask you you said 100 accurate. There are those out there who think its raid its not accurate its flawed i got to ask you does that offend you. It does we take it pretty personally we spend a lot of time. Testing and programming improving and making sure everythings right. We make sure there are no obstacles are impediments for any voters to vote. And were very conscientious at what we do in the voters for 4 years and years of trusted the process. Is kind of knew that all of a sudden even though weve been voting by mail for 20 years in california. Voters are for getting that experience and that trust that they have in the system and are questioning questioning it thank you so much scott for taking the time to talk to us so there you have it he says 100 not 99. 9 100 accurate. Hes confident. By the way if you dont want to come here and you still have your mail in ballot. There are people outside ready to pick it up for you from your car back to you. All right, thank you very much well one of the closest races in the country could end up being nevada and Emerson College poll from over the weekend shows a joe biden has a very slim twopoint lead 49 to 47 over trump and joining us now to look at how the voting is going so far in nevada, we have live in las vegas for us this morning, hey actor. Hey there good morning are already off to a bumpy start here in nevada voting started at 7 oclock this morning but some Voting Centers were not able to open on time due to technical issues. One woman reached out to me on facebook saying that not a single voting machine was on and that they were there are problems with the check in system that was down in henderson the states second largest city after las vegas and here in southwest, las vegas. Take a look at this line easily more than a 1000 people waiting here this is just a portion of the long line. You know people say they just wanted to wait for election day to cast their ballot near some interesting numbers, we have 14 days of in person early voting here dove and so far more than one 0. 1 million in the state have already cast their ballot and for some perspective. Officially passed more early votes in 2020 then votes cast in 2016 and everyone here is talking about how monumental this election is that it has been hit hard really hard with unemployment. Well, one of highest unemployment rates in the country and there is concern regardless of the outcome here about any possible unrest just like we sign in San Francisco in many cities across the u. S. Some Business Owners here in town decided to board up their store fronts in anticipation of any unrest and so as the Police Department here in town metro police has an additional 600 officers on standby. They also have Deployment Center that has been activated that they activate during big events such as new years eve. That Operation Center is open today as they watch the Election Results throughout the day and in the coming days, but that is the latest out here from las vegas. Im hector me here. James darya back to you ok looks pretty warm out yeah. It sure is weather is great out here we have some people who brought out some folding chairs. Others with some for some shade but the weather is nice its not too warm. Its actually just right right now ok just regulate absolutely they rely weather. On our side there and of course here too in the bay area john trouble in the Weather Center and and in washington yeah, i think its a little hard to be our bay area weather today though i mean 70s guys pretty perfect this afternoon consider yesterday were in the 80s and there are a couple spots in the 90s on sunday weve worked our way into a really nice way to spend a little bit of time in line if youre heading out to polls, especially one of our busier once it will actually be pretty enjoyable to wait in the line outside today looking outside at our timber on cam we have lots of sunshine overhead golden gate bridge. If you look really closely there you can see it in due back in our shot and we are looking at increasingly clear skies already across the region as i mentioned this past weekend. It was war this next weekend. Its going to be cool were right that sweet spot right in the middle where we are going to see sunshine and highs in the 70s today and we are going to be holding on to the 70s today tomorrow on into thursday before the bottom falls out to friday and we look at some cooler air pushing into the bay along with this cooler air maybe a sprinkle or 2 on friday and then again on sunday overall the biggest change youll notice is just how much cooler its going to feel with brisk conditions starting on friday. Heres friday at 01 00pm right here notice maybe a sprinkle or 2 in the bay more so than not though its snow in the Sierra Nevada with multiple inches expected. Both on friday into saturday and then again into sunday as another wave pushes through the weekend will be cool from start to finish all 3 days friday saturday and sunday bringing us highs only in the 50s and 60s that means today with the highs that will have in the 70s is a day to be appreciated hopefully. Outline a getting to those polls oakland 70 degrees for your high today hayward and mill valley also in the low 70s with our only 80 not on this map up in vacaville antioch livermore and san jose all in the upper 70s. Heres a look ahead at your next 7 days. I mention today tomorrow thursday all looking pretty similar and all very comfortable. The big changes come friday onward into next week best chances of a sprinkle or 2 looking likely friday and then sunday. Robin all right, thank you john were checking in on a major hot spot in oakland, its on the nimitz freeway we actually have 2 separate accidents active right here with as many as 5 cars all piled up on the nimitz freeway, so 80 south at high street in oakland, 2 separate accidents injuries reported 2 lanes shut down and your backup is already spilling into downtown oakland back from 9. 80 the northbound side thats the commute direction they can see the southbound activity so northbound is stacking up from hagan burger if you want to avoid it just go ahead and take 5. 80 instead the northbound commute 23 minutes here for from san leandro to downtown oakland once again thats because of the southbound crash, a Traffic Alert remains in place from chp so ill be watching that for you meanwhile, were looking good at the bay bridge toll plaza, no delays or issues into San Francisco. 8 minutes for the drive and then leaving San Francisco south one oh one and heading to the peninsula. Theres an accident here at oyster point and it has traffic crawling out of brisbane approaching south San Francisco saw be tracking this one for you as well back to you. Businesses across the bay area are boarding up their windows to prepare for any civil unrest that may ensue on and were back tonight, 23 as people head to the polls this morning this years election comes with a a bit of concern that there might be some unrest after the returns come out yeah from across the bay area to across the country there are businesses that are boarding up their windows ahead of any potential unrest. Kron 4 Sarah Stinson is live in walnut creek. Where we can see the boards behind you sarah. Darya james have been showing you all over walnut creek theres either windows that are boarded up or other businesses scrambling to get their windows boarded before any civil unrest occurs of course its early election day and we could get the result either tomorrow in the coming days, we just dont know so thats why businesses like the one behind me Neiman Marcus at Broadway Plaza preparing for this and making sure that they dont have to go through what they went through a couple months ago and we saw looting here take a look at this video theyve gone as far as putting barricades up here to make sure people can easily drive into the outdoor walking shopping area and then pull up breaking the windows still things and drive off without getting any ramifications that getting caught walnut creek residents are waking up to the sound of basically construction, but this is all preparation that these businesses are having to go through to make sure that they dont have to pay for these broken windows which can add up and be very expensive. I talked with a couple people. And there are calling the looting that happened a couple months ago a Broadway Plaza businesses in this shopping area. They had broken windows they had a lot of damage and items stolen and so not only are stores boarded up they have their kids are all ready to go police are on high alert people here though say theyre disappointed that its come to this. Its its sad for me. I mean voting is a good thing its a great part of our country and should bring us together not divide and that makes me sad it was we have to do help nothing happens. Now its believed that theres going to be civil unrest. No matter who wins selection and thats why businesses all across the bay area with a video from a witness being boarded up in San Francisco theyve been preparing for weeks this is being done all across the country these businesses are preparing for the aftermath residents here saying hopefully. That just doesnt happen at all. For now reporting live in walnut creek Sarah Stinson kron 4 news all right, thanks. A lot sarah. 9. 26 on the clock. Well take a quick break coming up voting well under way across the country and is a moment, well have a live report from both biden and Trump Campaigns as they await the results of todays elections. As a nurse, ive faced the fear of being stretched too thin to do my job right. And its not Just Health Care workers. Our teachers and school staff are going the extra mile for our kids. Our firefighters are taking on unthinkable missions to keep us safe. How can we keep giving billions in tax breaks to rich corporations when our communities need that money . Prop 15 closes corporate loopholes and invests in our schools, health care, and public safety. Help us do our jobs. Vote yes on 15. 9. 29 right now and were looking at the weather around the country on this election day you can see a little bit of a shadow over the white house here. But basically sunny in washington dc and it looks like pretty nice for most of the country there are few spots, i know that have been. On the chillier side we started out chilly too but obviously things have shaped up nicely for us, hows it looking for the rest of the day jon yeah sunshine ride definitely comes out more and between those low clouds that have been hanging out across the bay area this morning. Temperatures are starting to rise now for early voters. Yeah conditions maybe were jacket where the this morning but were going to see more and more of the 70s this afternoon that just means beautiful weather to be standing out in any sort of wine that you may encounter at a polling place youre berkeley cam right here shows beautiful skies, definitely evidence of marine theyre out there in the distance thats not keeping temperatures down too much. Were already at 60 degrees in san mateo 61 in fairfield Oakland Berkeley in conquered as well as dublin in hayward all on the cusp of the 60s saint helene a right at 60 degrees. Wakeup planner shows you temperatures in the 60s and 70s today and we will be looking at conditions out there later today. Nice and comfortable, lets get a look at traffic with robin over here she is tracking the bay bridge and actually a hot spot right what is the hospital were dealing with that so 2 crashes actually john on the nimitz freeway, so its a hot spot because its blocking chp has issued a Traffic Alert. And it is stacking up traffic on both sides of the nimitz so once again its a southbound crash at high street. 2 lanes are closed but northbound traffic has a view of the southbound activity there knows even cholera burn occurs looking lose and so its stocked up so if you take 80 south going to be crawling in traffic up from downtown oakland and the northbound at slow from hagan burger so northbound is the commute side. Its about 20 minutes from san leandro to downtown oakland so take 5. 80 instead thats how you get around it one more southbound 1 one we stir point we still have this injury crash working crews are on scene so little heavy leaving brisbane into south San Francisco james darya. Thanks a lot rob and so 9. 31 our top story of course is election day happening right now we have millions of americans all across the country heading to the polls. And washington correspondent Morgan Wright is following the Trump Campaign as were waiting for the results to come in. Tonight. Morgan tell us about what President Trump is doing. We understand that hes spending the day at the white house and that he may have a very large gathering. Yeah, thats correct what you saw from President Trump in the campaign was that in the final hours he was crisscrossing. These key battleground states such as pennsylvania michigan, wisconsin and then getting back to the white house late yesterday he woke up this morning. He was on fox and friends tv during an interview where he said he likes his chances at winning the re election for the we are anticipating him to have a large event at the white house with 400 people expected to be in attendance that event is slated to kick off at 07 30pm but up until that point President Trump is expected to be hunkering down and watching the results come in with his family and friends and Vice President mike pence meanwhile, former Vice President joe biden was in scranton pennsylvania today and philadelphia pennsylvania. Both candidates just trying to sure up some undecided and nontraditional voters on this big election day guys you know today kind of brings to an end for the president anyway. What has been a real sprint of Campaign Stops over the past few days it really has been a remarkable to think that what just 2 weeks. Well, half a month ago. He was at walter reed and here he is you know the final stretch really pulling out all the stops. Yeah thats right as i mentioned at the top there, hes just been crisscrossing these key battleground states. And what weve seen from the Record Number of early voters is that a lot of peoples minds are already made up so these lastditch Campaign Efforts that we saw the president engaged upon were really about just getting voters enthusiastic and excited and getting those undecided voters, those nontraditional voters engaged as voters that didnt vote and the 2016 president ial election, but now feel compelled to get off the sidelines and have their voices heard this time around guys and weve been watching a voters go to the polls around the country what about. People who had plans to demonstrate at the white house and the fences in the walls that they had put up. Have you seen any activity around there yet. Yeah the press, the white house is in preparation mode right now for any sort of unrest that may a rise out of the Election Results of course we may not know the Election Results. Tonight we have to stress that but nonetheless the white house and businesses and institutions around washington dc are boarded up and getting ready for any sort of unrest that may arise the Election Results later this evening but again its just a preparation mode at this point in time. I was just on twitter and i did see that there are some crowd starting to gather outse e of the white ho there are some people there so well keep an eye on that okay, thanks a lot. And dont forget to weve got cameras bringing us video feeds from all over in fact, heres a look at the latest out of milwaukee, wisconsin where we had people hitting the pole lines early this morning. The lines at last check werent terribly long which is good news for the folks that are voting today, the students spent hours and hours in line. But this is one of the areas joe biden needs to run up the score if he has any hope of flipping wisconsin blue again after President Trump won there in 2016 if you believe the polls he is in a commanding lead there, but again you never know until all the votes are and where do we see we saw some big in well lets take you to houston. We seen houston, we can see what that looks like in and it looked pretty calm and its calm at the moment. It was not vegas data was busy. We also saw out areas of pennsylvania 2 in virginia where lines into retreat, absolutely so. Its going to be turning see how all the how well all of that is processed today weve already heard some reports out of las vegas where they had some voting machine issues already so they started a little late in some spots areas so weve covered the trump side lets go to joe biden camps now. He is in delaware this morning and thats another part of the results that we will be following yeah weve got kelli meyer standing by live in wilmington with more from that side good morning kelly. Good morning guys thats right. I am here in wilmington, delaware is where the former Vice President started his day and where he will end the day but in the middle hes heading back to his home state of pennsylvania and to his hometown of scranton he just stopped by his childhood home run out on the living room wall there something you did during his 2008 race and then from there it is going to head to philadelphia us had a city that they hope they can bring out a big turnout in that area to bring home those 20 electoral votes in the keystone state. Thats going to be sure see how the biden harris ticket handles the Election Results coming in i they setting up this huge facility this huge stage in detroit where Kamala Harris is expected to talk today so even on election day theyre still out there something. Yeah, its interesting in a contrast, you said youre catching up with the Trump Campaign it seems as though the president had went to his headquarters in Arlington Virginia and then right back to the white house where hes expected to spend the rest the day according to the White House Daily schedule. But the fighting campaign is hitting the trail hard in final hours, you know we thought that that theyre going to finish up that campaigning yesterday but they are going on 3rd today hitting pennsylvania Kamala Harris is in detroit as you mentioned her husband is in Columbus Ohio and doctor jill biden is going to be in florida and i believe North Carolina today so theyre hitting all of those states and definitely keep an eye on all of those states tonight know joe bidens florida we also saw Melania Trump is in florida casting her right now as well so and what for the Biden Campaign tonight. After the polls close when are we going to see. So were going to switch gears and head over to the site where the rally is set to be its going to be a drive in raleigh, theyre still paying attention to the social and safety rules. But hes going to be there with his running mate Kamala Harris. Her husband, doug emhoff and doctor jill biden is expected to give a speech later on this evening so a busy day for the former Vice President hitting both of those home states of his delaware and pennsylvania. And its kind of interesting to you know juxtapose the big rallies. The big potential victory speeches in 2016 versus how things are being set up this year with the pandemic you see is going to be a drive in raleigh so however it plays out his supporters will be parking their car loans like weve seen them do it is rallies or recently. Yeah. Honk if you support you know this issue but they theyre going to set up their their cars it will be an interesting sight of hole to send you some video that later on well definitely check in with you later all right, thanks.

Election day registration has been a thing in california since it became a law back in 2012. Election day forecast looking really nice across the bay area we started the morning off on a cool note in the 40s and 50s temperatures are already climbing. This sets us up for some 60s and 70s later on today. Your forecast is ahead. 25 right now and were looking at pretty nice weather. In the Nations Capital and here in the bay area, good morning. John yeah, good morning guys a whole lot of nation is under some sunshine. The exception being the northeast a little chilly in a little cloudy up that direction but i think in the bay area weve got some of the best weather in the country right now will be in the 70s today, lots of sunshine already across the region. Sfo, one of our areas that did see some low cloud cover sitting right above San Bruno Mountain earlier that has since cleared out and what youve got is blue skies up above we were warm this weekend. We so weak system pushing through late yesterday thats resulted in temperatures gradually getting a little cooler today thats bringing us the 70s instead of 80s and 90s where we had been the upcoming weekend is bringing 50s and 60s so we really are right in the middle of what was hot and whats about to be cool weather or just perfect today. So theres no excuses weather wise to not get out there and cast your ballot today tomorrow and thursday just keep the good stuff going after that though friday the bottom falls out and we see cooler air pushing into the bay area and along with this an opportunity for maybe a couple sprinkles in the bay area more likely rain across Northern California and snowfall pushing into the Sierra Nevada. A few inches of it expected from friday into saturday, even though saturday clears back out for the day. It remains very cool another wave pushes through the bay on sunday that resulting in the opportunity of maybe a couple of sprinkles yet again a lot of the system going to be losing its steam before it reaches us so were not really expecting any sort of widespread rainfall but what we will be seeing is some helpful rain across the northern tier, the state that desperately needs it as weve seen drought, returning and that snow in the sierra which is also very needed as for today election day 60s for San Francisco cooler than yesterday 70s were 60s as well for most of our coastal spots, 70s for our bayside cities as well as for inland areas, weve only got one 80 on the map today and ill point that out once we get to have mid to upper 70s in the south bay today with low 70s and Fremont Union city and hayward upper 70s over in the tri valley as well as on up through walnut creek and concord berkeley and richmond in the upper 60s while oakland right at 70 degrees. Theres your ad over in vacaville right at 80 degrees for the high today. Well upper 70s in youngsville antioch pittsburgh and fairfield as well as santa rosa at 76 degrees today. So heres a look ahead at your next 7 days, we have plenty of changes but were saving them for friday today tomorrow thursday all looking great today, most notably for election day some beautiful sunshine and highs, mostly in the 70s.

Oakland fans are complaining about getting the raw end of the deal again they say these new warrior jerseys are real slap in the face steph looks adorable and it but that doesnt make it look any better that oakland fans have waited 35 years to see their towns name spelled out and you show them the love a year after yet dump them for the city.
