Peter's March 5, 2024 San Francisco Voter Guide

This March election is critical. If you are a registered Democrat you'll need to choose about a dozen candidates to vote for for Democratic County Central Committee (DCCC). This is the most important least known part of the ballot and where your vote makes the most difference. DCCC members choose who the Democratic party endorses in future elections. In SF, whom the Democratic party endorses makes a big difference in who gets elected Mayor and to the SF Board of Supervisors. The DCCC also can be a step to higher office. 

I recommend the candidates below because they are serious about climate change and the environment and are the better choice or many other issues as well such as education, public safety and transit. Most of these candidates have been endorsed by the Sierra Club and or the SF League of Conservation Voters. I've researched their positions on Car Free JFK, Great Highway Park, Slow Streets, housing, a climate bond, extending parking meter hours and more.
