millions of californians have already cast their ballots in the mail. our capitol correspondent eytan wallace has a breakdown of the early returns so far. >>yeah. across the state we're talking more than 2 million ballots cast so far it's been about 2 weeks since county elections offices send ballots to every registered voter in california. >>and now with exactly 2 weeks to go until election day of the 22.0, 3 million registered voters in the state. about 2.2 million have cast their ballot coming up to a turnout rate far about 10%. those figures coming directly from political dta, inc or pdi, a non-partisan voter information service tracking ballots and voter trends getting to about 10% by now seems about right. paul mitchell is vice president of pdi of the ballots returned so far. he says there's one trend that's downtown in particular. the people returning their ballots are largely older voters. in

fact, while older voters make up just about a quarter of the electorate, he says more than half of the ballots returned so far from californians aged 65 and older. contrast that with the younger voters aged 18 to 25 they to make up a quarter of the electorate. yet just 10% of the returned ballots are from their demographic. so real disparity in who's returning those ballots early. as for where it all stands on the political spectrum, mitchell is closely monitoring the share of each party that has voted so far. republicans are a little bit higher right now. there are about 13%. that's probably because more republicans are homeowners and older and more suburban areas voted by mail for longer. >>democrats are right at that 10%. so they're performing basically just like the average the group in partisanship that doesn't turn in their ballots early as much as the independence. right now, they're at about 8% while the statewide early voter turnout so far is a few points lower than it was at this time in the 2020 election. mitchell

says that comparison. in his words, it's really apples and oranges because that was such different environment in that presidential election. the fact that you had a lot higher, early turnout and even higher overall turnout, some of that was probably attributed to us being in covid lockdown. now you've got people taking the kid to soccer practice going to work, you know, going to school at the actual campus instead of from home. a lot of these dynamics having changed will probably reduce total turnout. >>and a reminder you can bring your completed ballot to an official drop-off location like this one or you can send it back in the mail. but this is key. you must sign and date the back of the return envelope for your vote to count reporting in sacramento. eytan wallace kron. 4 news. >>kron days after the keller

contingency budget has been triggered requiring immediate cuts of 63 million dollars. >>we provide more services than we can afford to provide. that is factual statement of where we are as an organization. and so the hard decisions that we will need to make our which services at what level we will no longer provide in order to stay within our resources. police and fire account for 75% of the city's general fund. >>but oakland's fire chief warren councilmembers. it for 5 fire stations have been closed when friday's keller fire broke out additional homes on campus drive would have been destroyed when you consider brownouts. understand the budget and the numbers. >>but it's not as simple as 20 million dollars will help us close the budget. it's it's on the backs of our citizens because they're the ones that aren't going to receive the time. the 9-1-1 that they've become accustomed to it. we really want to ensure.

the senate. by the like the presidential race, the battle over congress is extremely competitive and either party has the chance to win the majority in the house and the senate. it looks it's anybody's but who could get the house and the republicans have edge on the senate? political science expert todd belt says control of the house is likely to come down to just a handful of competitive districts. many of those are clustered in california, new york state where there are republicans that are holding districts that were won by joe biden last time. so they're very, very potentially right now. democrats hold a razor thin majority in the senate, but more democratic senators are up for re-election. democrats have a lot more to hang onto. then republicans do so. that gives republicans an opportunity to chip away. but if they do chip away, he's really looking like it's only going to be 1, 2 or 3 3 seats if control of congress is divided, it will be harder for either party to enact their agenda will probably see the commander in chief tried to use executive orders to govern instead of trying to work with congress, which is going to

think maybe just a patrick tule fog right along the immediate coastline, looking good out towards sfo right now, no delays being reported there either. while the golden gate bridge, not bad, not busy out there on the golden gate right now on mostly clear skies at this time. all right. overnight tonight, skies should stay mostly clear with the exception maybe of patrick to fog coast side tomorrow, mostly sunny. and it looks like by the afternoon these temperatures probably start to sneak up into some low 80's and some of the interior valleys are going to warm things up. but we get the weekend. that's where starts get a little iffy. things begin to change the clouds start to roll back in and the temperatures begin to cool down. right now we are seeing a few high clouds drifting into far northern california so far. so good here. but overall, i think we're going to see a return of some nice weather here. the next couple of days. the breeze. yeah, we've had a return of that sea breeze bringing that nice onshore flow. bring the humidity up and bring the fire danger down. and that's kind of where we say it's a really a nice spot here over the next couple of days. we need to enjoy it. but after that, things may change. here's the long-range forecast model. want to show this to as we

head through time. you've got a couple systems off the coastline. this that cut off low. we're talking about going to merge with a system coming out of the gulf of alaska as we get in close to the weekend, the clouds start to gather little bit and then you go into sunday.now some of the models trying to bring least a chance of showers in the bay area have to see if that happens or not. i think a better chance may come as we get in toward next week with that setup, right? there's low pressure because anchor self over the great basin. we make it back to some offshore winds. could have to watch that closely as we get in toward the beginning of next week. and then this next storm system on halloween when you know maybe bringing a chance of showers. the bay area also got to keep a close eye on that one. temperatures, 69 degrees downtown san francisco, sunshine for tomorrow. 66 in the sunset, you'll find some sunshine along the coastline. temperatures. they're generally in the mid 60's inside the bay. 68 millbrae 68 in burlingame. 74 degrees in san carlos. 75 amount south bay enjoying lots of temperatures near 80 degrees in san jose. that will crank out a couple 80's in a pleasanton a little more by tomorrow afternoon. should be about 80 in walnut creek. 81

in concord, about 76 in below 80 degrees in napa. and 81 in fairfield. really a nice weather pattern kind of selling itself up here is we're going to see what looks like a little warming trend for the next couple days. then we start to cool down and the weekend next week looks a lot cooler. again, those winds may be kicking up about tuesday with maybe higher fire danger. and then as we get into halloween, maybe we get some creepy looking a little clouds rolling in. >>and that doesn't here for us at kron. 4 news will be back with the morning news. starting at 5 o'clock. i'm stephanie rothman. thanks for watching.
