ya, tho 44% of the city voting to disband the police department is still something. these three wards actually had the highest margin for voting for that ballot as youd expect. at least the rent control proposal passed
All that means is that the city will burn again in a few years. They didn't learn their lesson when one police station was burned down. Now 33% of the police force has quit, they can't recruit anyone to replace them, and the violence has just continued. The next time things erupt they'll have fewer cops to beat down the people.

With that much support it feels like just better education / messaging and you'd get a majority. It's definitely encouraging to see
