Corrections:
- President George W. Bush won the electoral vote in 2000 with 277 votes in the Electoral College to Gore's 266 votes. Our story on the Electoral College ("Winner Take All," RC Oct 14) misstated the number.
- The Mayor's proposed budget does not seek to expand buy-bust operations occurring throughout select neighborhoods throughout the city ("Prejudice Undercover," RC Sept. 30). Instead, he wants to pair more police officers with personnel from the Department of Corrections in an effort to make sure released offenders are meeting the requirements of their probation.

Affordable Housing: We Can't Wait Any Longer
- Issue: Governor Gary Locke is in the process of deciding the details of the budget he will propose to legislators in December. There's one obvious piece of the solution to homelessness - create an adequate supply of affordable housing. The Housing Trust Fund is one component of funding for affordable housing, and this year, advocates hope to increase it to $100 million. Call Governor Locke this week and request that his budget include $100 million for the Housing Trust Fund
