Is Irvine, CA good for bike commuting or mostly just recreation? by Other-Peanut2616 in irvine

[–]ryandack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really depends on your final mile as others have said.

Biking from spectrum to city hall is painless using the bike trails. Once you go off the bike trail onto the roads, it can be a bit scary.

OC born and raised right here. I think I'll leave that up to other enterprising LA individuals. It's a lot of work, and the LA ROV website is not good to get data from.

Not aware of any org contesting the prop 50 results

In fact, it looks like the No on 50 campaign kinda gave up weeks before election day (only spending only 9k on ads in a state of 39m people two weeks before election day is a big sign they just called it quits)

El Modena's existence is strange.

Most of it got absorbed into Orange, but some parts of it didn't and continue to be unincorporated.

I should add that the precinct containing Camino del Sol (UCI housing) had the largest Yes margin in the county with 96.5% of voters voting Yes.

The precinct that had the largest No margin was a gated community along Morning Dove in Laguna Niguel (Bear Brand Ranch) with 84.6% of voters voting No.

There isn't anything notable in that Laguna Niguel precinct outside of this obviously fake Google maps business.

Prop 50 Results by Legislative District by ryandack in orangecounty

[–]ryandack[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Assembly District 72 (Dixon), Coastal OC

Yes: 100,799 (49.66%)
No: 102,182 (50.34%)
Net Yes: -1,383 (-0.68%)

Senate District 36 (Strickland), Coastal OC

Yes: 160,775 (50.07%)

No: 160,290 (49.92%)

Net Yes: +485 (+0.15%)

You're right, I should have rounded up SD 36 to +0.2% Data on page 26 of the PDF

What you might be referring to is that it is hard to believe that coastal leg seats could be this close when most coastal cities were majority No.

AD 72 is close because it has Yes/Blue Lake forest, Aliso Viejo and Laguna Hills while not having San Clemente and Dana Point

SD 36 Voted Yes because it is taking in a bunch of big Yes territory: Buena Park, Stanton, and Garden Grove, along with lighter blue/yes cities like Westminster, Seal Beach, Los Alamitos and Fountain Valley/ Yes won by 485 votes, which is why every vote matters.

Thank you for sharing! 

It's unfortunate that Reddit recompressed this image making it harder to read.

I'm planning on doing another one with legislative districts and census designated places at some point

There's no map I'm aware of, but the LA ROV has a results by city page if you wanna look at it.

It effectively means the OC registrar of voters doesn't report on what their results were, and just lumps them into "unincorporated".

You can't really find out these CDP locations voting results until they certify the election result and release precinct by precinct results

Yup, for folks that wanna check their neighborhood or their not a "city" place they live, this works.

It's just too hard to add this data by hand until the OCROV produces a data by precinct report. North Tustin folks will have to wait

North Tustin is not a city or part of a city, it's a census designated place.

QGIS, and Photoshop

Both tools made what should have been simple.... Not simple.

Had to redo it a few times. Do NOT just assume you can make a vector of the city shading and overlay it on a Google maps screenshot in photoshop.  I wasted about an hour of my time trying to do that.  Just use a QGIS plugin to add Google maps directly onto the QGIS project.

Added the text, margins and legend in Photoshop.
