Rogan Schiff Contest Highlights Campaign Flaws and Voter Response
In the Rogan Schiff contest the primary swung 51 to 49 for Schiff with Rogan’s ads accused of being mean spirited. After the primary Rogan mimicked a Democratic agenda but failed to win: Schiff increased his margin to 10 percent in the general. Rogan’s campaign suffered from poor grassroots work, disorganized district operations, and no Get Out The Vote plan. San Marino shows 70 percent Rogan in the primary and 68 percent in the general.

Photographer Watkins and the Yosemite Legacy in Photography
The piece traces Carleton E Watkins, a Oneonta native who joined the 1849 Gold Rush journey to California with Collis P. Huntington. Failing at gold, Watkins found work in a portrait studio and pioneered outdoor landscape photography using wet plate collodion negatives. His California and Yosemite works gained prominence in Hutchings California Magazine and New York galleries, with a 1867 Oregon trip noted before history continues on page A-6.
