Peter's November 5, 2024 San Francisco Voter Guide
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 housing, education and transit. I've researched their positions on Car Free JFK, Great Highway aka Ocean Beach Park, Slow Streets, housing, a climate bond, extending parking meter hours and much much more.

State propositions
Yes on 3
Yes on 5 - We need to make it easier to pass housing bonds. This is critical. More here.
No on 33 - Prop 33 is an poorly-conceived, over-broad measure that will likely worsen housing affordability by empowering NIMBY jurisdictions to block new housing.
Yes on 35 - Prop 35 will address our most urgent health care priorities by securing dedicated, ongoing funding – without raising taxes on individuals – to protect and expand access to care, including funding for community health care providers, like Planned Parenthood, who predominantly serve low-income Californians on Medi-Cal.
SF Mayor London Breed - She's not perfect but she's by far the best choice. She's best on housing, best on transportation, best on environment. Unlike her opponents she was a vocal champion of Car Free JFK, Great Highway Park aka Ocean Beach Park and her administration brought us dozens of slow streets and protected bike lanes. I am ranking Daniel Lurie as a distant #2. But ranking Breed #1 is critical.
