The GrowSF Voter Guide for November 2022

Your SF election ballot has arrived. We did the election homework for you!

We’ve reached the last election for 2022 — our fifth election in 14 months 😅

Ballots have arrived and so has our San Francisco Voter Guide! We did the research for you…

Here are our most important endorsements for this November:

District 4 Supervisor (Sunset): Joel Engardio

Joel Engardio knows our West side families need to feel safe and their kids deserve a great education. That’s why Joel was a leader in both the School Board recall and the Chesa Boudin recall. Joel is the only candidate in the race who supported both recalls.

Joel will bring a focus on public safety, education, and fiscal responsibility to City Hall.

District 6 Supervisor (SOMA, Mission Bay): Matt Dorsey

Matt Dorsey is a strong voice for public safety, personal responsibility, and for holding drug dealers accountable. Since taking office earlier this year, Dorsey has put forward sweeping new legislation to clean up the district and to arrest the dealers of deadly fentanyl.

Dorsey is the only candidate who supported both the School Board and Chesa Boudin recalls.

District Attorney: Brooke Jenkins

Brooke Jenkins prioritizes prosecuting anti-Asian hate crimes and charging fentanyl dealers who are killing nearly two people every day via overdose.

School Board: Ann Hsu, Lainie Motamedi, Lisa Weissman-Ward

Ann Hsu, Lainie Motamedi, and Lisa Weissman-Ward are parents, not politicians. After over 70% of San Franciscans recalled the School Board, Mayor London Breed appointed them to fix our school district.

They prioritize academic achievement, support advanced instruction, and will balance the budget.

Defend our recall victory. Vote Ann, Lainie, and Lisa.

And the most important ballot measures:

• ✅ Yes on Prop 1 - Constitutional right to abortion

• ✅ Yes on Prop 30 - Investments in fighting and preventing wildfires, and reducing carbon emissions and air pollution from vehicles

• ❌ No on Prop C - More red tape around homeless services

• ✅ Yes on Prop D - Make it easier to build homes

  • Proposition D will make it easier for everyone to build housing that’s affordable to teachers, firefighters, and working families. Prop D is supported by GrowSF, Habitat for Humanity, the NorCal Carpenters Union, and State Senator Scott Wiener.

• ❌ No on Prop E - Board of Supervisors anti housing measure

  • Proposition E is an anti-housing measure put on the ballot by the Board of Supervisors. It has a poison-pill provision that will kill Proposition D (Affordable Homes Now), and make it even harder to build the housing we desperately need.

• ❌ No on Prop I - Close JFK Promenade, spend $80 million to move sand

• ✅ Yes on Prop J - Keep JFK Promenade open

• ❌ No on Prop M - New property tax on unoccupied housing

• ❌ No on Prop O - New parcel tax for City College
