Measure O, dubbed Parks for the Future, fell short in Tuesday's voting with 60 percent in favor and 40 percent opposed.

"Going into it, we knew it was going to be tough," said Julia Bott, executive director of the nonprofit San Mateo County Parks and Recreation Foundation. "I'm sure the low voter turnout didn't help us." Photo credit: jurek d
