SAN DIEGO (Nov. 10)---Voters trusted the San Diego County Taxpayers Association, the results from Tuesday’s election show.
​In the months leading up to Tuesday’s election SDCTA provided in-depth analysis of 22 ballot measures. Among those measures, voters sided with the Taxpayers Association 17 times. See detail below.
 
The San Diego County Taxpayers Association PAC invested in advertisements for 5 of the 22 measures, and in each case voters agreed with the PAC’s recommendations. 
San Diegans voted no on Measures C and D, rejecting tax increases for a new stadium for the Chargers and a convention center annex.
 
Measure X was also defeated, protecting taxpayers from a tax increase in the Grossmont-Cuyamaca Community College District.
 
Measure BB was approved, providing new bond revenue to Grossmont Union High School District for important school improvement projects.
 
Lastly, Chula Vista voters approved Measure P to raise money for important infrastructure needs.
 
“We take our role as the region’s taxpayer watchdog seriously so we’re pleased to see voters align themselves with most of the recommendations from the Taxpayers Association,” said Haney Hong, President & CEO of the Taxpayers Association. “We’re especially proud to see how well our PAC investments performed.”
