>> now at 6.30, a major pro-palestine rally is happening right now in oakland. hundreds of people are gathered at frank ogawa plaza. that's right in front of oakland city hall. and that's where we find kron four's. dan thorn live with the latest. dan. >> yeah, ken vicki, this group was out marching to the streets of downtown oakland, oakland earlier pro-palestinian group, but also a number of union organizations and labor organizations around here as well. the focus is on trying to make sure that the united states government and united states companies understand that they do not want the funding going to israel in this situation, this war that in we heard from a number of speakers out here already that

are coming together talking about the connections the labor movement and also that pro-palestinian protests and also the protests in support of the situation that's happening in significantly smaller group than what we had here earlier. people have been coming out here waving palestinian flags. also holding up signs talking about the connections between workers and also the we were down at the west oakland bart station. earlier. there were a number of people there celebrating what they called a victory rally because their plans were to go to west oakland bart station and then marched down to the port of oakland and shut down the port. but the in anticipation, this protested closed down. so the group was saying, hey, look, this is fantastic because it kept about 12 million dollars in revenue being generated today at the port. lot of that money, the millions of dollars they get made there. they say the united states government uses to spend supporting israel in

what they're calling a genocide. so they're happy that that money is not going to go in that direction. and also union workers that were part of that port. we're out there protesting at the west oakland, bart station and also out here tonight. so right now there's positive feeling things are being heard, that people are being heard. their message is being heard. but of course, some more needs to happen because that cease-fire resolution has not become official. the warning does continue out here and they are hoping that more of their message gets out there and that they're in support what's happening colleges and universities in downtown's all across again, these groups are going to be out probably for a little bit longer, just making sure that they're getting their message out and anything more happens. we'll bring the latest kentucky back to you. dan, earlier we we saw about 1000 people that were marching

down broadway. are these the same folks that you're with right now? >> and yeah, i believe that is that this same group that was marching through the streets of downtown oakland. they gathered here so that they can have music and then thay could also have speakers come out and part of this. but again, as the sun is going down, more people have been dispersing. and that's similar situation to what we saw over at the west oakland, bart, bart station as well. but you can expect more protests and more rallies will happen as this war continues to go you know, they do not want the funding from the united states government to be going to israel. and if that continues, these protests will continue. and movements will continue. it is something somewhat remarkable, dan, that we have multiple protest sites taking place right now. we have. >> san francisco state stanford, uc berkeley, this one in oakland. have you had a chance to talk with any of the folks there? are they going to different locations? this is the only one they're participating in. are they

from oakland? what we know about the people who are participating in this particular event? yeah. most of the people that are here at this event are from oakland, their organizations that are from oakland, they are worker organizations from oakland. >> they are community organizations that are from oakland. so they have been moving from event to event. a lot of people that were here at this one. what specifically organized so that people would march through downtown oakland and then eventually end up here at the plaza. the other group that was at the west oakland bart station was the arab resource and organizing center sunday. responsible for a lot of the protests that happened in a san francisco. also, the protests that we've seen in the freeways and on the bridges. so a lot of these people, yes, there from here in the bay area and the organizing with people here in the bay area again, we should expect more protests are going to happen here and whether it's in oakland, san francisco, san jose or even in the north bay campuses like sonoma state university as

this war just continues to go on. >> and so east where you are, it looks peaceful. all right. dan thorn reporting live for us from frank ogawa plaza in oakland. >> meantime, a southern california right now, a massive protest is taking place on the campus of ucla. this comes after violence broke out overnight between different groups of protesters. you can see here there are at least hundreds of people gathered on the campus last night for about 2 hours there was some violence, heated confrontations between different groups of students and police didn't actually lapd didn't get there for about 2 hours and finally stepped in to break up the violent acts that were taking place or there are fireworks being thrown. there were there was pepper spray. people were pushing down some taking time. there intense and so on and and of course, physical fist fights that were taking place. but finally, it was all broken up and there was not a single arrest that we're aware by

lapd. things are much calmer right now as we see in this picture. campus authorities are asking the students and the protesters to disperse. and of course, that has not happened. all right. we'll keep our eye on this. and meantime, kron 4 is your local election headquarters now. the big development in the silicon valley congressional race that and it in an astonishing primary tie. >> and recount of 2 those recounts have been completed. tonight, we're learning that assemblyman below is heading to the november election. >> yes, going to join a san jose mayor sam liccardo on the ballot. santa clara county supervisor joe submitting and is now out of the running kron four's. catherine heenan in our newsroom with the very latest. catherine, this vote was. 5, only 5 votes. to mean first of all, the exact tied to the in the primary. >> yeah. and then ended up 5 votes in the after all of

3 person race for says a 2 person race. what was basic concern? >> yes, for those who may not have followed concern was that of a super pac without that type of financial disclosures of who's paying for this utilizing the recount process for political gain associated with a particular candidate. and that was the significant concern that has been brought up by many other stakeholders in this regard. and that's why it's important to be reminded about what art district expects. we expect accountability. we expect transparency and we also want to make sure that we're attacking this issue of making sure that address most pressing issues impacting everyday voters as well. >> the calls for mandating automatic recounts in close races are getting louder and louder after this messy expensive process. if it happens at the state or the county would pay not the donors, not the candidate. i

asked quote, if that makes sense. >> absolutely. it does make sense. and that's why i'm in a unique position as a state legislator or to carry that legislation. in fact, we have this policy in place at the local level to have an automatic recount. it's important that taking politics out of the system of the electoral process itself when it comes down to counting to dispel any type perceptions that it might be in flux in any way. that's what our residence wants. that's what expect. and that's also uncovered the importance of maintaining that integrity. >> supervisor joe submitting in meantime, issued a very gracious statement tonight. he's congratulating both evan low and sam liccardo and some of says he's disappointed but not sad saying that he has had wonderful work to keep him engaged in santa clara keep doing that. by the way, he really did seem to stay above the fray and all of reserving any statements for after the vote count. can. all right.
