Excerpt:

After two weeks of hand wringing and wrangling, Alameda County Registrar of Voters Dave Macdonald has agreed to call the SunCal initiative "Measure B" rather than "Measure A." Until the decision was made late Monday, city officials and voters alike had expressed their concern that Macdonald's original decision to tag the initiative with the moniker "Measure A." If that decision had held, Alameda voters would have gone to the polls in February to vote whether not to modify the existing Measure A by voting yes or no on a new Measure A.
