And she says bail reform came with the costly price of giving judges more power over pre-trial detention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don’t believe replacing one racist system with another racist system is progress,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wicks called both deals a \"step in the right direction\" for California, helping the state maintain a leadership role nationally on climate change and criminal justice policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I know that it wasn’t perfect,\" she said of Senate Bill 10, the bail reform legislation, \"but it was the first of many steps we need to take.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The divergent approaches have helped inform the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11682736/rent-control-expansion-will-it-divide-democrats\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">candidates' split\u003c/a> on one of the most controversial issues in their race: \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11684346/possible-rent-control-expansion-sets-off-debates-in-bay-area\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Proposition 10\u003c/a>, the November ballot measure that would allow for the expansion of \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11677380/is-rent-control-working-and-should-we-have-more-or-less-of-it\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rent control\u003c/a> in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 15th District is one of the few in California with three cities that already have rent control policies on the books — Oakland, Berkeley and Richmond — suggesting it could be a ripe laboratory for the expansion of rent control should Proposition 10 pass.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beckles has whole-heartedly supported Proposition 10, tying her campaign closely with the Yes on 10 effort.

Wicks ran statewide campaigns for both Obama and Clinton, while Beckles is backed by Our Revolution, the group formed out of Bernie Sanders' presidential campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Will these national players get involved with endorsements or even ads in a local Assembly race? Don't rule it out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wicks was not only an early staffer on Obama's 2008 campaign, she also worked inside the White House to push for the passage of the Affordable Care Act. And Sanders has come to the district to endorse Beckles before (in her \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1322&v=-FQ6n49AWpY\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2014 run\u003c/a> for City Council) and in recent years has endorsed other progressive candidates for the state Legislature.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Neither candidate seems anxious to make this race a proxy war in the interminable Clinton vs. Sanders debate, and it's not clear who would be advantaged by that dynamic. In the 2016 Democratic primary, Clinton edged Sanders in Assembly District 15 by less than 1 percentage point, 50.2 to 49.4.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>A Focus on Housing\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In the crowded primary, the 12 candidates prioritized voter outreach and turnout over drawing policy differences with the other contenders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That will likely change with the field down to two.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With skyrocketing rents and home prices in the Bay Area, it's no surprise that both campaigns are focused on housing. Neither candidate voiced complete support for \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11657578/what-to-know-about-the-housing-bill-that-has-people-freaking-out-from-marin-to-compton\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Senate Bill 827\u003c/a>, which would have forced cities to allow more dense developments around transit, but Wicks was more supportive than Beckles of the idea of giving the state more control over zoning in order to spur construction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The debate over rent control is more likely to be on voters' minds this summer, with a measure to repeal the state ban on expanding rent stabilization on the November ballot. Beckles supports that \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/articles/exploring-the-promise-and-unintended-consequences-of-rent-control/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">measure to repeal\u003c/a> the Costa-Hawkins Rental Housing Act, while Wicks prefers reforms to the law, including the idea of stabilizing rents on units when they reach a certain age.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two are also divided on how to regulate charter schools, a lightning-rod issue in Oakland. Beckles has advocated for a statewide moratorium on new charter schools. Wicks supports efforts to make charter school organizations more transparent, but says the process of approving charter applications should be left to local school districts.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Can Beckles Compete with Wicks' Fundraising?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Wicks' tremendous fundraising helped her gain name identification in a primary field where six of her opponents had already appeared on a local ballot before. By raising more than $650,000 in the primary, Wicks was able to get her name out through mailers, television ads and phone banking, buttressing a busy schedule of canvassing and house parties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beckles raised less than all the other leading candidates in the primary, relying mostly on small donations. To be competitive in the general election, she will have to continue to dominate local fundraising: An analysis of primary donations finds 72 percent of contributions to Beckles came from ZIP codes within the district, compared to just 13 percent of donations to Wicks.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Where Will the Outside Spending Come From?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In addition to leading the field in campaign fundraising, Wicks was the biggest beneficiary of independent expenditure spending in the primary. By law, these groups (also known as Super PACs) are not allowed to coordinate with campaigns or directly give money to candidates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The largest independent supporter of Wicks was the group Govern for California, \u003ca href=\"https://medium.com/@DavidGCrane/a-pro-citizen-2018-agenda-for-california-59b354f3d019\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">which advocates for\u003c/a> issues including pension reform, changes to teacher tenure rules and increasing the state's housing supply. The former two positions have drawn the ire of \u003ca href=\"http://www.berkeleyside.com/2018/04/27/opinion-who-is-trying-to-buy-the-california-state-assembly\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wicks' opponents\u003c/a>, and led her to \u003ca href=\"https://medium.com/@buffywicks/setting-the-record-straight-b8e53416c55a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">defend her record\u003c/a> on education policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Consultants often say that the first rule of independent expenditure campaigns is \"do no harm\" to the candidate or cause you're trying to help. It's possible that support from Govern for California could become a liability for Wicks if their campaign continues to be a lightning rod for her opponents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It remains to be seen if any outside spending (particularly from labor unions) coalesces around Beckles. She did not have any registered Super PAC support during the primary, although an outside group called Blue America PAC paid for a Facebook ad that promoted Beckles and criticized Wicks. The ad was removed by Facebook for \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/politicalcontentads/?active_status=all&q=blue%20america\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">not meeting\u003c/a> the platform's \u003ca href=\"https://newsroom.fb.com/news/2018/05/ads-with-political-content/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">new reporting requirements\u003c/a> for political content.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Winning Over Primary Opponents\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>It's no surprise that a primary packed with 12 candidates led to a split among many interest groups and officeholders involved in East Bay politics. It will be vital for Beckles to consolidate the support of both organized labor, which was \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11668675/organized-labor-split-in-east-bay-assembly-race\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fractured in the primary\u003c/a>, and the candidates who positioned themselves to the left of Wicks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also undecided are the two Congress members representing most of the district, Barbara Lee and Mark DeSaulnier, who are both currently weighing which candidate they'll support in November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More important for Beckles and Wicks is winning over the voters who chose one of the 10 other candidates in June -- and the potential November voters who didn't turn out for the primary.\u003c/p>\n\n","disqusIdentifier":"11677440 https://ww2.kqed.org/news/?p=11677440","disqusUrl":"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2018/06/28/what-to-watch-for-in-the-east-bays-15th-assembly-district-race/","stats":{"hasVideo":false,"hasChartOrMap":false,"hasAudio":false,"hasPolis":false,"wordCount":1043,"hasGoogleForm":false,"hasGallery":false,"hasHearkenModule":false,"iframeSrcs":[],"paragraphCount":24},"modified":1541199137,"excerpt":"Buffy Wicks and Jovanka Beckles face off in the Bay Area's only open state legislative race.

The winner will take the seat now held by Democrat Tony Thurmond, who is running for superintendent of public instruction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here are some things worth watching as the race for the Bay Area's only open state legislative seat hurtles toward November.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Obama/Clinton vs. Sanders?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Both Wicks and Beckles have ties to the most recognizable names in Democratic Party politics. Wicks ran statewide campaigns for both Obama and Clinton, while Beckles is backed by Our Revolution, the group formed out of Bernie Sanders' presidential campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Will these national players get involved with endorsements or even ads in a local Assembly race? Don't rule it out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wicks was not only an early staffer on Obama's 2008 campaign, she also worked inside the White House to push for the passage of the Affordable Care Act. And Sanders has come to the district to endorse Beckles before (in her \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1322&v=-FQ6n49AWpY\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">2014 run\u003c/a> for City Council) and in recent years has endorsed other progressive candidates for the state Legislature.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Neither candidate seems anxious to make this race a proxy war in the interminable Clinton vs. Sanders debate, and it's not clear who would be advantaged by that dynamic. In the 2016 Democratic primary, Clinton edged Sanders in Assembly District 15 by less than 1 percentage point, 50.2 to 49.4.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>A Focus on Housing\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In the crowded primary, the 12 candidates prioritized voter outreach and turnout over drawing policy differences with the other contenders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That will likely change with the field down to two.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With skyrocketing rents and home prices in the Bay Area, it's no surprise that both campaigns are focused on housing. Neither candidate voiced complete support for \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11657578/what-to-know-about-the-housing-bill-that-has-people-freaking-out-from-marin-to-compton\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Senate Bill 827\u003c/a>, which would have forced cities to allow more dense developments around transit, but Wicks was more supportive than Beckles of the idea of giving the state more control over zoning in order to spur construction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The debate over rent control is more likely to be on voters' minds this summer, with a measure to repeal the state ban on expanding rent stabilization on the November ballot. Beckles supports that \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/articles/exploring-the-promise-and-unintended-consequences-of-rent-control/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">measure to repeal\u003c/a> the Costa-Hawkins Rental Housing Act, while Wicks prefers reforms to the law, including the idea of stabilizing rents on units when they reach a certain age.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two are also divided on how to regulate charter schools, a lightning-rod issue in Oakland. Beckles has advocated for a statewide moratorium on new charter schools. Wicks supports efforts to make charter school organizations more transparent, but says the process of approving charter applications should be left to local school districts.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Can Beckles Compete with Wicks' Fundraising?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Wicks' tremendous fundraising helped her gain name identification in a primary field where six of her opponents had already appeared on a local ballot before. By raising more than $650,000 in the primary, Wicks was able to get her name out through mailers, television ads and phone banking, buttressing a busy schedule of canvassing and house parties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beckles raised less than all the other leading candidates in the primary, relying mostly on small donations. To be competitive in the general election, she will have to continue to dominate local fundraising: An analysis of primary donations finds 72 percent of contributions to Beckles came from ZIP codes within the district, compared to just 13 percent of donations to Wicks.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Where Will the Outside Spending Come From?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In addition to leading the field in campaign fundraising, Wicks was the biggest beneficiary of independent expenditure spending in the primary. By law, these groups (also known as Super PACs) are not allowed to coordinate with campaigns or directly give money to candidates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The largest independent supporter of Wicks was the group Govern for California, \u003ca href=\"https://medium.com/@DavidGCrane/a-pro-citizen-2018-agenda-for-california-59b354f3d019\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">which advocates for\u003c/a> issues including pension reform, changes to teacher tenure rules and increasing the state's housing supply. The former two positions have drawn the ire of \u003ca href=\"http://www.berkeleyside.com/2018/04/27/opinion-who-is-trying-to-buy-the-california-state-assembly\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wicks' opponents\u003c/a>, and led her to \u003ca href=\"https://medium.com/@buffywicks/setting-the-record-straight-b8e53416c55a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">defend her record\u003c/a> on education policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Consultants often say that the first rule of independent expenditure campaigns is \"do no harm\" to the candidate or cause you're trying to help. It's possible that support from Govern for California could become a liability for Wicks if their campaign continues to be a lightning rod for her opponents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It remains to be seen if any outside spending (particularly from labor unions) coalesces around Beckles. She did not have any registered Super PAC support during the primary, although an outside group called Blue America PAC paid for a Facebook ad that promoted Beckles and criticized Wicks. The ad was removed by Facebook for \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/politicalcontentads/?active_status=all&q=blue%20america\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">not meeting\u003c/a> the platform's \u003ca href=\"https://newsroom.fb.com/news/2018/05/ads-with-political-content/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">new reporting requirements\u003c/a> for political content.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Winning Over Primary Opponents\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>It's no surprise that a primary packed with 12 candidates led to a split among many interest groups and officeholders involved in East Bay politics. It will be vital for Beckles to consolidate the support of both organized labor, which was \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11668675/organized-labor-split-in-east-bay-assembly-race\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">fractured in the primary\u003c/a>, and the candidates who positioned themselves to the left of Wicks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also undecided are the two Congress members representing most of the district, Barbara Lee and Mark DeSaulnier, who are both currently weighing which candidate they'll support in November.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"floatright"},"numeric":["floatright"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More important for Beckles and Wicks is winning over the voters who chose one of the 10 other candidates in June -- and the potential November voters who didn't turn out for the primary.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}}],"link":"/news/11677440/what-to-watch-for-in-the-east-bays-15th-assembly-district-race","authors":["227"],"programs":["news_72"],"categories":["news_6266","news_8","news_13"],"tags":["news_22561","news_22743","news_20179","news_20191","news_22734","news_23214","news_24446"],"featImg":"news_11675040","label":"source_news_11677440"},"news_11674969":{"type":"posts","id":"news_11674969","meta":{"index":"posts_1716263798","site":"news","id":"11674969","score":null,"sort":[1529028631000]},"parent":0,"labelTerm":{},"blocks":[],"publishDate":1529028631,"format":"standard","disqusTitle":"Buffy Wicks and Jovanka Beckles to Face Off in General Election for East Bay Assembly Seat","title":"Buffy Wicks and Jovanka Beckles to Face Off in General Election for East Bay Assembly Seat","headTitle":"KQED News","content":"\u003cp>Richmond councilwoman Jovanka Beckles will face political strategist Buffy Wicks in the general election for the 15th Assembly District, a matchup set up after a roller-coaster week of ballot returns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wicks won the primary handily, with over 31 percent of the vote.
