Californians - is there a water board recall being planned where you live?

There is in my district (North Orange County area) and we are getting absolutely flooded with robo dialer calls on this - at least 10 a day. Quite frankly it makes me not want to vote at all on this particular issue. Is that affecting anyone else in the state and how do you feel about that?

We have just a general election for the Antelope Valley-East Kern Water Board.

Sounds like OC is not-too-happy with their water board.

I blocked all calls I don't recognize, btw. However, it does ring once, and I get 10-12 of those per day too.

ps: Love your screen name!

One local columnist calls the Santa Clara County water board "the Golden Spigot".

The City of Napa just sold some of their state water allotment to Santa Clara County.

One of the things the Golden Spigot has failed to do is seismic work on our dams, limiting our reservoirs to 75% capacity even in good years. So now you know where Napa's water is going.
