San Francisco Mayor London Breed Nears Defeat to Levi’s Heir Daniel Lurie
Breitbart ^ | 11/07/2024 | Joel B. Pollak

Posted on 11/07/2024 6:47:19 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

San Francisco Mayor London Breed, the first black woman elected to the job, is facing defeat after early returns showed Levi’s heir Daniel Lurie with a commanding lead in the 2024 election.

Politico reported:

Early returns show her trailing far behind Daniel Lurie, a Levi Strauss heir and nonprofit founder, who far outspent the incumbent using his personal wealth and blamed Breed for the city’s problems with homelessness, brazen theft and drug overdoses.

He leads with 56 percent of the vote using the city’s ranked-choice voting system, while Breed has 44 percent.

It’s a dismal showing for Breed, a moderate Democrat, who was nevertheless projecting optimism after early returns. “It ain’t over till it’s over,” she told supporters Tuesday night at a soul food restaurant near downtown.

Breed took an on-again, off-again approach to radical policies such as “defund the police,” eventually calling the idea “bullshit” and demanding more law enforcement. Local business owners were not impressed, and called for her to resign after a series of mass looting events targeted high-end stores in Union Square. Breed tried to deny that there was a retail exodus from the city, but San Francisco residents noted the departure of retail chains and flagship stores.

“They pay $6,000 for a two bedroom apt...”

Do they charge extra for the needles and poop outside the main entrance?

Lol.

I hope Lurie is smarter and more decent than his Manhattan congressman cousin, but there’s no guarantee of that.

Breed, a moderate Democrat..

Hahahahaha! Moderate Democrat? Just WTH is that definition? Is that like 'moderately' pregnant, or 'moderately' brain dead?

Just which of her communist policies are 'moderate?'

Observations by H.L. Mencken, that are definitely applicable to California Democrats:

"Democracy is a pathetic belief in the collective wisdom of individual ignorance."

"Democracy is also a form of worship. It is the worship of jackals by jackasses."

"Democracy is the art and science of running the circus from the monkey cage."

"Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard."
