An updated vote count expected out of Marin County today could push a measure to subsidize child care, build more early education facilities, and increase wages for educators over the finish line.
Joanne Webster is president of the North Bay Leadership Council, which advocated for the measure.
We're still waiting for all the final votes to be counted, but we're very optimistic that the Marin voters will deliver a really, really important investment in kids of Marin County.
Ten years ago, a similar tax measure in Marin failed to get a supermajority or two-thirds support to pass.
If it passes, Marin will be the fourth Bay Area county in eight years to fund child care.
