@GaneshIsHere They’re just mad we passed too many measures that hurt the rich in the city. Making the ballot shorter is just their excuse to justify doing this. Local ballot measures only take up one page, and sometimes half a page in the overall ballot.

@GaneshIsHere No. Right-wing groups raise millions of dollars to pass their measures. They have enough resources to send dozens of mailers & pay canvassers to go door to door. This will only hurt the left, nothing else. The right will continue doing what they’ve always done.

My premium doubled because ACA credits weren’t extended, and Mayor Lurie’s cuts to criminal defense has meant lost income. Because of this, I’ve lost my health insurance. And some well paid YIMBY influencer wants to lecture me on how *I’m the one* hurting working class people??

@saikatc @Mtclai @gilduran76 @MLNow Near the end of Lai’s thread on Bottlenecks, his “elegant” redesigns are: Reducing vote by mail, pressuring USPS, using AI instead of manual signature matching, increasing the threshold to place props on the ballot, changing city hiring, and using the “Billy Graham” Auditorium.

@sf_mills OMG…I forgot he contributed his “genius” to this little project. 🤦‍♂️ Do you think he thought Bill Graham Civic Auditorium was named after Billy Graham the evangelist? 💡🧐

Our city leaders want to give the rich a massive tax cut during a budget shortfall. Coincidentally, the mayor wants to implement steep cuts to essential services for the poor. Straight out of Trump’s playbook.
Mission Local@MLNow

Bilal Mahmood is pushing a tax cut on multi-million dollar real-estate sales, part of a package to incentivize new housing. But it would cut taxes whether you built housing or not. And he now says that he’s open to changes. missionlocal.org/2026/06/san-fr…

And then the people who were his media surrogates that were spreading smears and lies, are like this. WTH?

I'm happy I missed this, but what a way to go out. Saikat Chakrabarti's campaign doing desperate lies trying to smear his progressive opponent as owned by AIPAC. She is not. Totally made up. And doing this to set fire to everything he professed to care about. Amazing.

@corbintrent @lateefahsimon How much of a heads up were you given ? I see your PAC is taking advantage of this

So the dead internet theory has come for our elections, eh? Seems like what goes viral on here is increasingly disconnected from how people actually perceive value. Would probably be fine if not for the dead local journalism theory, the dead broadcast news theory, and so on.

Some good news: Nate Allbee who just directed field for Saikat Chakrabarti has been hired to run Mayor Lurie’s charter reform measures. 😍😍😍

@onlyfanons I think it had more to do with the candidate, and everything about the candidacy. He had no connection to the district, or interest in it. He shopped a district and chose one where he had some plausible connection, it's iconic, and most progressive in relative dem terms.

@onlyfanons @neo_antiquarian When it was just him vs Pelosi, I literally reached out to the campaign to try to help. At the time thought he was going to be the most progressive option. Saikat was like “yeah, I definitely want your help. My campaign director is CC’d.” Never heard from them again.

@loomdoop I was specifically thinking of Nate Allbee who knows how elections work in the city & who the stakeholders are

@onlyfanons Is it even worth dissecting? His consultants were all his friends and business partners for years. And they were all like Trevor Chandler. They thought they were smarter than everyone, and masters of art of campaigns.

The Lurie/GrowSF agenda is primarily about austerity, with other issues as window dressing. Hollowing out public investment and unleashing privatization is the fundamental goal.

@RealSwoletariat I’ll concede that my jokes are very mean & I’m sorry if it upset you. I’m just yapping & processing.

@RealSwoletariat I think I’m allowed to joke about the really bad outcome. I’ve also praised Saikat. This race was not my priority, it was Prop D. Super grateful to Saikat for his help on it. That said, I just can’t believe he lost. I was gearing to vote for him in the general.

Noticing a roughly 1:4 ratio of "We're all friends against Weiner" to "Lol your guy sucked and your votes ain't worth a dime." on the TL. I'm sure that's a good sign.
Raya@onlyfanons

Shahid Buttar, seen here performing a bongo rap about the NSA on Russia Today, challenged Pelosi in 2020 & secured 65,000 more votes than Saikat. The man rapping in this video got more votes than Saikat who just spent $10 million on his campaign to replace Pelosi.
