I live in San Mateo, CA and the City Council is adement about making an over pass wider and taking over 40 homes (including ours). The people in our Neighboring city's are coming to our aid to stop the city councels maddening power and being in bed with developers. I am so glad I am taking political science right now. In our first class we went over the constitution and how people have the right to replace there government when it's not working (or the government wants more power) In this case its our local government and everyone in the small city of San Mateo is waking up and plan to remove the city official in the november elections.
