Our endorsements this year reflect three simple principles: accountability in City Hall, no new taxes on struggling families and businesses, and common sense in how our city is run.
Our strongest endorsement this cycle goes to Nicholas Berg for District 2 Supervisor. Nick has spent his career actually running things - including managing budgets, buildings, and teams across San Francisco's neighborhoods. He also serves as the SFGOP Chairman. We are proud to give Nick Berg our full endorsement.
In Districts 4 and 6, we recommend Alan Wong and Matt Dorsey as the candidates best positioned to stand up for safe streets, functional government, and the everyday concerns of residents.
Our public schools should focus on outcomes: reading, math, and preparing kids for real opportunity. We recommend Laurence Lee, Phillip Kim, and Tim Tung for the Board of Education.
We recommend Elijah Ball for the Community College Board.
We recommend John Pimentel for the State Board of Equalization, California's elected tax oversight body. Taxpayers deserve a watchdog, not a rubber stamp.
At this time, we are making no endorsements in the following races: Congress (CA-11) and Board of Supervisors, Districts 8 and 10.
YES on A — Charter Changes Affecting Various City Departments and CommissionsStreamlines our bloated City Charter and reins in the tangle of oversight committees that diffuse responsibility. Fewer layers, more accountability.
NO on B — Establishing a Municipal Finance Corporation and a Public BankSan Francisco's municipal government lacks the competence, integrity, and incentives to run a bank. We believe they would make lending decisions based on cronyism - not risk. Vote NO.
NO on C — Contributions to the Housing FundAnother budget set-aside that locks up taxpayer dollars while the city faces a structural deficit. Vote NO.
NO on D — Changes to Ballot Measure ProcessProp D would quadruple the signatures required to place a citizen initiative on the ballot — from 2% to 8% of registered voters. The initiative process belongs to the people, not the politicians. Vote NO.
YES on E - City Administrator’s Authority and Changes to City ContractingWhen city services fail, voters should know exactly who is responsible. Prop E strengthens the executive branch's authority over city government so that accountability sits where voters can reach it - at the ballot box. Vote YES.
YES on F — Changes to Executive Branch ManagementToday, the Mayor can hire and fire only a small fraction of department heads; the rest answer to unelected commissions. Prop F lets the Mayor reorganize failing departments, appoint and remove department heads, and answer directly to voters for the results - with the Board of Supervisors retaining the power to block any change. Accountability requires authority. Vote YES
YES on G — Allowing Private Vehicles on the Great Highway in Sunset Dunes ParkWestside families were promised a compromise and got a road closure. Prop G restores weekday vehicle access to the Upper Great Highway while preserving weekend recreation. Vote YES.
NO on H — Parcel Tax to Fund Public Muni OperationsA 15-year property tax to bail out an agency that refuses to reform itself. Fix SFMTA's management before asking homeowners for more money. Vote NO.
NO on I — Changes to Real Property Transfer TaxEarmarks 50% of real estate transfer tax revenue to housing and development projects. It was signature-gathered largely by the Democratic Socialist of America. Mayor Lurie said it would create "an unaccountable slush fund for the groups that wrote it". Vote NO.
NO on J — Removal of Foreclosure Exemption for Real Property Transfer TaxRemoves a longstanding tax exemption and squeezes property owners at their most vulnerable moment. Vote NO.
NO on RTM — Regional Transit MeasureA 14-year sales tax levied across five counties funding regional transit - levied at 1% in San Francisco but only 0.5% everywhere else. San Franciscans already pay among the highest sales taxes in California. We shouldn't be paying twice the rate of Santa Clara or San Mateo residents for the same regional systems. Vote NO.
Election Day is Tuesday, November 3, 2026.
