7:05 am
coliseum is set to expire after this year. this will be the second such meeting between the two sides. you may remember back in july, raiders' owner, mark davis, visited san antonio. at that time, met with city officials there. according to the san antonio express news, the raiders have determined that the alamo dome is an nfl-ready facility. the team has been doing surveys in texas to gauge fan interest in the raiders. we talked this morning with a member of the group, save oakland sports. he wants raiders' ownership to remember the team's dedicated fan base here in the east bay with all of this talk of relocation. the silver and black continue to sell out, even though the raiders haven't had a lot of success on the field. >> our plea would be to mark davis, please consider that, and to understand that the fan base is dedicated to helping him make a new stadium, a world- class stadium in oakland a reality. >> reporter: and there is an important connection that could
7:06 am
come into play during all of this. the raiders' owner is friends with former san antonio mayor henry cisneros and cisneros is the person spearheading the effort to lure the raiders away from oakland. he's heading up the group that will be here later today. according to one report, cisneros believes san antonio has about a 50/50 chance of getting the raiders to come there. important to keep in mind, raiders' owner, mark davis, says his preference is to keep the team in oakland. he wants to build a new stadium at the current coliseum site. a critical meeting tacking place. alex savidge, ktvu channel 2 news. >> an important topic we'll be talking to the mayor-elect coming up shortly. councilman sam liccardo is moving closer to victory in the race. dave cortese could concede today. the latest election numbers so

7:09 am
150 feet to 245 feet and increase cubic capacity by 15 million kushic yards. it's an idea that does not sit well with neighbors. >> it's getting worse by the way, and every subsequent year we've been here, it's gotten worse and worse. >> i'm demanding to get rid of that smell, that is the bottom line. >> it's unfortunate that we've been singled out. there are multiple odor sources out here in and around milpitas. >> reporter: republic services which operates the landfill says that it is in full compliance with the daily cover and odor misting system to neutralize the smell. they say there's no correlation between smell and vertical expansion. but neighbors say the smoke comes from the landfill only not the bay or the san jose treatment plant as republic has alleged. live from milpitas, i'm tara moriarty, ktvu channel 2 news. >> thank you. 7:09. a california victim's rights

7:11 am
their top concern in this week's elections. experts say that's because paychecks have not increased much for average americans. now, the top 1/10 of all wage earns have seen their income jump 10% between 2010 and 2013. the lane hoar department said they've seen their pay hold steady or decline. how are marketings reacting? the u.s. stock market opened slightly lower. the dow is down 23. the nasdaq is down 16 and the s&p is down a fraction. >> all right, tori. 7:11. there were two overnight shootings in san francisco in less than an hour. one of them involved a police officer. coming up in 20 minutes why the police say they were forced to open fire. but first, arrested at the airport. what a man is accused of stealing off a plane that southwest airlines said could have compromised the lives of other passengers. overall, the commute is a little better than normal but we still have some slowing in

7:17 am
security risk in the event of an emergency. aviation workers say it's actually a bigger problem with vests being stole onen a regular basis. wensle faces a misdemeanor charge but could also face federal charges. peer pressure may have a lot to do with those who buy electric vehicles. atherton and los altos along with santa monica are home to just over half of all u.s. electric cars according to a recent report. analysts say california has encouraged electric car ownership by building charges stations but they say that should mean ownership would be spread evenly in affluent communities. >> you've been thinking about it. >> i have been. i've been driving a hybrid for eight years. i'd be interested in going all
