PASADENA SAYS NO TO EXTREME RENT CONTROL
Amid the drama of election day, it's easy to lose track of local issues. LA County has now released local election results, which show that Pasadena has voted decisively against extreme rent control and vacancy control, by 56% to 44%.
This is a huge shift from the previous ballot measures from Michael Weinstein in 2018 and 2020, which were defeated state-wide, but were favored in Pasadena, leading the anti-housing provider extremists to push for Measure H in 2022.
Pasadenans have now seen the real consequences of putting rental housing policy into the hands of unelected activists, and they are not impressed. No longer can extremists claim that they are enacting "the will of the people".
