San Francisco’s rejection of woke politics wasn’t quite as dramatic as Oakland’s but it is still worth noting. In Oakland, voters chose to recall the city’s embattled mayor and county DA Pamela Price who ran on a promise of criminal justice reform. Apparently Oakland has had enough of that. Los Angeles County also voted to get rid of progressive DA George Gascon.
In San Francisco, the most progressive member of the city’s Board of Supervisors also got voted out. Dean Preston called himself a Democratic Socialist and he did everything he could to keep the city’s police from getting involved with the city’s homelessness and drug problems. Yesterday he conceded his loss but vowed to fight on.
With Bilal Mahmood’s lead widening over San Francisco Supervisor Dean Preston, the incumbent has acknowledged his likely loss in the District 5 race.
