SAUSALITO, Marin County — November 4, 2026. An early count showed Sausalito voters leaning against Measure X, a local zoning question on the November 3 ballot. The KQED results page recorded 755 yes votes (39.1%) and 1,173 no votes (60.8%) as of its 11:13 p.m. update.

A question about land-use rules

Measure X concerns local zoning. Land-use decisions can influence future development and municipal policy, but this election-night tally alone does not establish how every project or parcel would be affected. Readers should consult the official Marin County voter information and measure language for the precise legal effect of a yes or no vote.

Separate from the City Council election

Sausalito residents also voted for two council seats from a four-candidate field. Early returns placed Jill Hoffman and Nastassya Saad in the first two positions, followed by Joan Cox and Adrian Brinton. The local council election article contains those distinct preliminary figures.

What happens next?

The measure is labeled as requiring a majority for approval. However, the November 3 results are preliminary, and the county can add further eligible ballots in subsequent reports. This article does not treat the measure as finally defeated before certification.
