[New York Times] * Non-citizens and people here illegally will be able to vote in local school board elections in San Francisco, if they have children in the school district. If the Hunchback of Notre Dame was written today, it'd be a musical about San Francisco. [NPR] * Trump canceling the White House Cinco de Mayo celebration is perhaps the most racially sensitive thing he's done.
