Murphy Heads Livermore Valley Vote Tally In First Supervisorial District
In a disputed race the campaigning centered on water company ties and land deals around the Stevenson estate. Registration in the Livermore Valley favors Murphy, shaping a likely eastern hill majority while Washington Township shows only a slim margin. Mullins and Foss appear set to win Onteland, keeping Murphy, Mullins, and Foss in control of the board. Congressional battle favored Knowland with St Sure emerging as a county figure backing Knowland.
