for the sierra above 6,000 feet. i'll have more on the forecast and i'll break it down hour by hour, in just a couple minutes. >> all right. thank you very much. new this morning, it is a good day to stay in, maybe snack or cook, but might want to watch what you pull out of the fringe. trader joe's is launching a recall of a few products that have cilantro and possibly salmonella bacteria. check for the following products 12 ounce spicy thai pasta salad, their cilantro pecan dip with dates of november 20th and 24th. they also have on the recall list spicy peanut vinegarette with a sell by date of january 9, and cilantro dressing. trader joe's says you can return any of these products to their stores for a full refund or just throw them out. so far, though, luckily no illnesses have been reported. to san bruno where most of the streets destroyed by september's deadly gasline explosion could reopen by the middle of the week, but the huge

crater that was caused by the blast won't be filled up until the investigation wraps up. san mateo district attorney's office and the insurance investigators say they still need access to the crater that is 72 feet long, 26 feet wide. the d.a. has not launched a criminal investigation but the bay area news group reports that could change after the ntsb issues its final report. the ntsb will share its second preliminary report in december. daly city community and city leaders are fed up with the cow palace and calling for change. the city wants the power to oversee the venue, power that is in the hands of the state department of food and agriculture. today in the bay ago kimberly terry shows us two incidents that sent two dozen to the hospital, that's turning the request into a demand. >> reporter: daly city city councilman says two drug related incidents at the cow palace in the last six months are proof

events held here need more oversight. last week, 17 people were treated at local emergency rooms, one put in icu, after a concert at this venue. in may, nine people were hospitalized after a rave. two of them died. police suspect that those illnesses were caused by overdoses of the drug commonly known as ecstasy. >> those who sort of say this legislation is, you know, anti-event, i would really sort of suspect that and begin to question that. >> reporter: he says he will propose a new law monday asking for legislation to give the chief of police the authority to approve permits for events at the cow palace. it will include a mandate requiring those attending, be at least 18 years old and adds a fee for police and fire services. community leaders are backing him, saying the state is just too far removed to regulate these events. >> imagine 16, 17-year-old kids, mingling with people in their 20s. and so they're going to get

exposed to behavior that is probably a lot more mature than they are and, you know, they're out, they're unsupervised, so they're going to take chances. we want to prevent that. >> what needs to be done is first of all prevention which is a lot cheaper than intervention, you know, but we need to have more drug and alcohol awareness programs for youth. we need to be able to better regulate young people, actually keep them from coming to the raves in the first place. >> that was kimberly terry reporting. she says tomorrow the proposal will be discussed at the city council meeting in daly city. it's not officially on the agenda but it is a first step in getting it passed by the city council and then if approved they can work to find someone in the state legislature to sponsor the bill and hopefully turn the power over. we begin with developing news in the east bay where a manhunt is under way for the gunman responsible in a brazen shooting in which two young men were killed. oakland police have not yet released the victims' names but

they tell us that they are 18 and 22 years old. police found the men shot to death in broad daylight outside the city towers apartment complex on eighth street in west oakland. it was right around 3:30 in the afternoon. people aren't taking san francisco's new sit lie law lying down, after protesters will rally against the law at the westfield shopping center. tuesday voters passed the measure which bans sitting or lying on public sidewalks in san francisco between 7:00 in the morning and 11:00 at night. first time violators will get a warning. repeat offenders face 30 days in jail and $500 fine. the law goes into effect in january. still ahead on "today in the bay" we the voters have spoken and we have to live with our decisions. coming up, california's pitched a fit about prop 21 and it might get tougher to pitch a tent at cash strapped state parks and beaches. and working the weekend, poll workers in the east bay not getting rest. they're crunching the numbers in

you may be wondering what you're supposed to do with your time now that san francisco giants have won the world series. root for your other bay area teams. san jose sharks, they play on tuesday at home at hp pa vil ron. decision 2010 isn't a done deal in some parts of the bay area. days after the election in oakland, the new ranked choice voting system is still shaking up the mayor's race. in a turn of events don perata, the frontrunner, trails jean quan by 2 percentage points. a reversal of fortune is how perata describes the turn of events. as "today in the bay" reports, this may be just one of many surprises in the race for mayor's office. >> reporter: in oakland, election workers are spending the weekend counting 15,000 remaining ballots and with 1900

votes now separating former state senator don perata and council woman jean quan, the registrar of voters says anything could happen. >> the dynamics of the process, somebody can pick up a lot of second or third choice votes from a candidate that's eliminated and then all of a sudden somebody comes from behind, which is what we've seen in this race these are not final results. >> reporter: the registrar explained the dramatic turn of events with perata losing a comfortable 10 point lead over quan is a new voting process called ranked choice voting where voters cast ballots for their third, second and third choices. in the latest scenario third place candidate rebecca capman was eliminated and a majority of her votes went to quan. a if you days ago, quan, a supporter of ranked choice, said she was hopeful the process would work in her favor. >> we always knew we were going to win or lose this by a few

percentage points. some ways you would rather win or lose by a bigger amount. >> quan told me the overwhelming transfer came to me and puts us in a comfortable position. she added never count your chickens before they hatch. anything can happen. perata is a long-time opponent of ranked choice and his campaign called the latest count a reversal of fortune and referred to ranked choice voting as a mystery. his spokesman told me by phone, it certainly wasn't expected. especially with such a comfortable commanding lead. we had 10,000 more first choice votes. election officials say because of how votes are tabulated even third place candidate rebecca caplan still has a chance. >> i would not give up if i was one of those top three candidates. any one of those three could winp. >> that was monte francis reporting. in the east bay a battle for a congressional seat continues to go back and forth. democrat jerry mcnerney's bid got a little bigger. the incumbent represents parts

of alameda, and parts of contra costa and has a lead of 568 votes for a total of more than 175,000 that were cast in the race over republican david harmer. workers are counting mail-in and provisional ballots and thous d thousands remain to be processed. the election for state attorney general is also too close to call right now. los angeles county district attorney steve coolly now has a slim lead over san francisco's d.a. harris by about 22,000 votes. the secretary of state's office says it could be weeks, though, before we know the final outcome. meg whitman spent a record $141 million in her quest for governor, but beev it or not, she does not hold the record for most money spent per vote. that record belongs to new york mayor bloomberg. the mercury news reports he spent $186 per vote last year to win a third term as mayor. whitman's tally $43 per vote. she lost tuesday's election to

jerry brown. look at the screen. jerry brown spent $7.50 per vote. park benches and trails sponsored by cooperations, sounds like a bit of a joke but that is one of the options state park systems are looking into after this week's defeat of prop 21. prol 21 would have raised vehicle registration fees by 18 bucks to bring in revenue for cash strapped parks. without that extra $500 million a year, the state parks department may have to resort to higher entrance fees or corporate sponsorships just to stay open. and that is in addition to reduced park hours and furlough days for rangers and life guards in place. nbc bay area political analyst larry gur ston will be here in a half hour to talk about what else is ahead for californians now that the election is behind juice the california department of fish and game is considering ending hunting restrictions in 19 refuge areas around the state. the refuges cover a total area

of almost 1 million acres in 16 counties. for us here in the bay area, those areas cover part of mt. diablo, and parts of the peninsula and san mateo and san francisco counties. the department of fish and game argued the refuges have been a dismal failure because they have not helped to increase the deer population. the san francisco board of supervisors has a full plate for tuesday's meeting. first on the menu is the final vote on banning kid toys in kids meals at fast food restaurants that don't meet nutritional requirements. if the board approves the band mcdonald's and other restaurants would have until december of 2011 to make the meals healthier if they want to offer the plastic goodies. the board will have to start digesting what life will look like after gavin newsom leaves for lieu ten flants governor seat in san francisco. the city charter says the board of supervisors should pick the interim mayor but the process is not established. board president david choo will

and have better access to. but unfortunately it's not going to happen this year. >> we want to talk about your delivery service. this is some would say the first in the nation medical marijuana delivery service. how is it that -- if it is such a great idea, why are you the only one doing it? >> there are several other delivery services that are delivering, but none of them have the license, the regulations. i went through the planning commission process. this is an extension of my use permit so we actually agreed upon all these rules through the planning commission municipal law process. it's tedious. it takes months and months. we have statewide insurance come in and agree to insure everything that the town of fairfax wished to ensure, the drivers, the vehicle, of course, the medical marijuana is itself, and identification for the town of fairfax. the insurance company, statewide, was really great. they had to revamp their entire medical marijuana division to

come up to the level of the requirements of the town of fairfax, which they did. i'm pleased. >> we're almost out of time. are you hoping this is wait things will go, dispensaries will go totally legit and all the proper channels so it can be considered true medicine instead of a backdoor deal to get marijuana? >> absolutely. i've been regulated for over 13 years and it's brought marijuana peace to our neighborhoods. the dope dealers off the streets. i can call the town of fairfax police department if there's a problem, which there's been very little problems because the police are officers of the peace. i think regulation and having a transparent what we're doing here is very transparent, very honest. we can be audited but not the medical records, of course. it's definitely brought marijuana peace and i'm glad for that. >> we'll be watching you. you are doing things differently. it will be interesting to see how the pans out. thank you so much lynette shaw, marin alliance for medical

stake? why was the student targeted? for answers to those question we turn to czar ra blue of the council of american islamic relations i should say. thank you for coming. i know you have your gala event. you will be up late. thank you for joining us. >> thank you for having me. >> talk about what you can do, why the student was targeted. there's nothing particularly [ inaudible ] about the student. this is a young arab-american student who goes to school, travels home to the middle east a couple times a year and that's it. that's really all there is about him. that's our concern, he fits a profile and if that's all it takes to be harassed by the fbi, i would argue we're a lot less safer. >> i think a lot of folks consider gps technology, you know, a life saver, folks who can't find their way around. there is a flip side and that is privatesy issue. >> and that's very concerning. where do you go and do you want

someone to know the very intimate details of your travel plans, someone you don't know, haven't asked for your permission and you find out weeks later they've been following you everywhere. >> you don't have to be considered suspicious. we saw it. >> that's the problem, he is one not only not suspicious, two, he had previously offered to cooperate with the fbi when he was approached and said, we have some questions for you. he said let me talk to you. i would be more than happy to. and they backed off when he hired a lawyer. they said never mind. >> okay. i know you have a meeting set up with representative mike this month. what are you going to discuss? >> the meeting is with his office hoping that this will -- should be utilized as an example of the civil rights violations in the bay area. a lot of us in the bay area think of this as a safe place, civil rights violations don't happen and we think it's important our elected officials know what's happening with federal tax dollars. >> not that vigilance isn't bad

but should be done in a way -- >> that's also effective. by alienating someone who has offered to cooperate and then alienating the entire community, we're not any safer. >> okay. thank you very much for coming in today. i hope the gala goes beautifully. >> thank you. >> you're going to be tired tomorrow. coming up on "today in the bay" -- the ballots have been cast, the campaign posters have been taken down, the confetti cleared from the campaign headquarters. what is next? our political analyst larry gurston weighs in just ahead. [ male announcer ] we went to germany's nurburgring to challenge ourselves on the most demanding track in the world. with us, in spirit, was every great car that we'd ever competed with. the bmw m5. and the mercedes-benz e63. for it was their amazing abilities

that pushed us to refine, improve and, ultimately, develop the world's fastest production sedan.

it is over no more campaign commercials, press conpresses, speeches, the 2010 election is history. the question is where do we go from here? let's ask larry gurston. after an election sometimes you feel like okay, we have a new direction. but is it just a feeling or do we actually have new direction?

>> it's over and i miss it already. >> of course you do. >> of course i do. >> you're a junky. >> sorry. we have a new direction? not really. >> okay. >> not really. look, the election itself did very little to change california's political landscape. that's the bottom line, chris. california remains a blue state, that's for sure. no question about that. particularly on the social issues, okay. but in choosing jerry brown over republican meg whitman, voters seemed to say they preferred experience over promise. okay. fair enough. democrats continue to dominate the legislature, no big change there, with majorities of 25 to 15 in the state senate. 52-28 in the assembly. it's lopsided as those majorities are, democrats still don't have control. why? because it takes a full two-thirds vote on most of the important legislation. and that's the rub. that's why things really haven't changed. >> so, jerry brown is going to be the next governor. >> yep.

>> former governor. governor-elect, what's his biggest challenge? i would think it's the budget. the economy and the budget is the biggest challenge. >> that's a big part no question. he has two, two dig challenbig . he has to recalibrate citizen expectations. we expect first rate public education, the best excellent transportation, support for local government programs. yet at the same time we don't have the tax base to support all those things as evidenced by a new 20 12 to $15 billion deficit for the coming fiscal year. deja vu all over again. cutting even more or raising revenues. there's no magic formula. second, he has to find some way to get the legislature on the same page. you know what, that's the hardest task of all, particularly at a time of fiscal crisis, no doubt. >> we know there was a shift nationally. >> yes. >> the control of the house and the senate changed.

>> yep. >> what does that mean for california? >> interesting. you know democrats will retain control of the senate. we know that. 53-47, we assume the way things will break out. diane fine stein and winner barbara boxer are likely to keep their committee chairmanships. the majority shrinks a bit. in the house where everything took place, really. at most looks like democrats are going to lose one congressional seat, probably the 20th congressional district, down in the central valley. that will flip to the republicans. the biggest difference for the democrats is going to be the loss of nancy pelosi's speakership and with that, guess what? five committee chairmanships held by democrats. committee chairmanships are important because you direct the flow of legislation. on the other hand another way to look at this with the new majority, california republicans seem poised to win three committee chairmanships. not a all is lost. government oversight, daryl i sa, the committee that asks all the telling questions, does the investigating. armed services, buc mckey han

from southern california and appropriations jerry lewis. this there may be battles for some of these posts but that's the way it looks. >> a lot of folks are wondering what nancy pelosi will do, now she's no longer speaker of the house. people often don't finish out their terms because they feel majority leader is a demotion. >> she said she's going to run for the minority spot, minority leader spot. it's gone both ways. denny hastert, retired, left altogether. late same rayburn, he lost his speakership three times, became minority leader, came back three times. depends on what you want to do. she's going to run for it and the question is whether her fellow democrats will go ahead and re-elect her. as much as she's raised about $200 million for these guys over the years the likelihood she'll get re-elected as minority leader. >> thank you very much. we expect a tough two years leading up to the next election. >> you bet. >> find more of larry's political insight on
