and students and community members want to know what they can do to prevent it.
It may not be that easy, but a good way to start would be to contact Republicans who could still vote to place a tax extension on the ballot -- so said MPC President Doug Garrison and trustee Charlie Page. One of them is Sam Blakeslee, who represents the 15th district that includes Monterey. At this stage in the game (Blakeslee sent a letter to Gov. Brown saying he and the four Republicans willing to consider a tax extension had reached an impasse in negotiations) it may be too late. Still, judging by the passion expressed last night at the meeting, there may be hundreds of people who should let Blakeslee and other Republicans know how they feel.

The other Republicans who were in negotiations with Blakeslee are: senators Anthony Canella, Tom Berryhill, Bill Emmerson, and Tom Harman.
