7:04 am
work with her when she was the head of the intelligence committee. and when i was working on the senate side when she was on the senate side is working on the house side. also. want to acknowledge again. >> okay. so very uncomfortable moment for adam schiff pro-palestinian. protesters interrupting his victory speech last night after he advanced to the november election in a race to succeed late senator dianne feinstein, the air ship and republican steve garvey are now going to faceofin november's general election the ap is projecting they're both succeeding. eclipsing representative katie porter and representative barbara capital course by john wallace with the latest on that. >> well, what these results you have to imagine republican steve garvey is one happy camper, but perhaps even happier democrat adam schiff. this is exactly what he wanted. here they are. garvey was pulling neck and neck with

7:06 am
dollars. every trick in the playbook to knock us off our feet. but i'm still standing in the high heels. >> obviously not the result. katie porter and hoped for. but this is shift one of things to go. he spent millions of dollars on advertisements, touting garbage, conservative views, trying to bring him into the spotlight in hopes of facing garvey in the runoff. that's because in california registered democrats outnumber registered republicans by about 2 to one. that's why adam schiff is confident he can beat garvey in the november general election. but garvey says he will put up a fight reporting in sacramento. i'm a tom wallace. now back to you. >> it's 705. now let's look at san francisco where voters have passed proposition e so that measure revamps police policies could make it easier to fight crime in the city kron four's. michael thomas is live now san francisco city hall with the details. good morning, michael. all right. good morning, everyone. the
7:07 am
passing of proposition e essentially will allow san francisco police. >> to have a little bit more resources and allow them to ultimately get some better technology. and this move also means excuse me, we may see some police chases in the city. take a look. we've got video up on your screen so i can explain it all to you. now. prop ee will widen the scope of san francisco police being able to chase suspects by car prior to this passing, the police commission imposed a 10 year-old policy that would only allow officers to chase criminals if they felt that the suspect had committed a violent felony or the person with a threat to public safety. now, this new change allows officers to chase criminals by car. if the person has committed or is likely to commit a felony or violent misdemeanor. now this, why didn't that scope and ultimately allows the chasing of criminals when it comes to robbing are breaking into retail stores, which has been a major issue here in the city. it also authorizes police to use more drones and its top public surveillance cameras with the latest
7:08 am
technologies. without further approval. and lastly, it does allow the police department to hold community meetings before the police commission can make major changes to the department's policies overall, take a look. we've got a graphic up on your screen about the voting on this. you can see more than 50% voted. yes. and mayor london breed actually did put statement up essentially being happy about this. take a look because she's been pushing for this 2 for quite some time saying essentially she is grateful that the proposition did passing that. it will allow us to build on the progress we're delivering on public safety and san francisco by supporting the work of our park police officers. expanding our use of technology and getting officers out from behind their desks and onto our streets. we will continue in our mission to make san francisco a safer city. and back out here live again, this policy also does require police to, as she said, get out of the office because there's a time limit on how much time they can spend on administration work.
7:09 am
>> so we will see more officers out on the street as we get more details as to how the police department plans to move forward with these changes. we'll keep you updated. that's the very latest michael thomas reporting live in san francisco. back to to live in the street and just update on the rain heavier or lighter this hour. what do you say, michael? >> it's it's been pretty steady. it's quite heavy, i will say. it's been like this since about 5.30, or so. okay. all right. check back with you later. great joint coverage. >> here's what san francisco voters also passed. prop f that requires those who receive city public assistance benefits to participate in drug treatment. dependency programs. san francisco mayor london breed released a statement saying this is an important tool to get people into treatment to create more accountability around city programs. that initiative is part of breeds plan to offer support to those who have substance use disorders. also by holding them accountable when they refuse help. measure passed with 63% of the vote.
