Problem solver. Not a politician. Running for Congress.

[Keith Freedman - 基思 ‧ 費里德曼 @USRepKeith]

Congratulations to @DanielLurie on becoming the next Mayor of San Francisco! May the wind be at your back as you lead our city forward.

I also want to extend heartfelt gratitude to all the candidates in this race. Running for office requires courage; it means opening yourself up to public criticism, scrutiny, and all the challenges of today’s social media landscape. But it also brings moments of genuine connection, support, and gratitude from people across our community—and offers the chance to see the world through a different lens.

To everyone who supported my campaign and to each candidate who put their heart into this race, thank you. Your commitment and passion make San Francisco a better place.

The real test will be if Police will make arrests and DA's will actually prosecute.

I know you were a fan of Jenkins, but my experience with her office hasn't been amazing.

A victim of a crime that wasn't impacted by Prop 47, and the perpetrator with a dozen priors was offered probation because the 2nd da didn't want to proceed to trial.
The first one was ready to go then she got reassigned and the 2nd apparently was uninterested in prosecuting a repeat offender even with hours of clear video footage in what the original ada referred to as a "slam dunk" case.

Laws asking our law enforcement folks to do more are meaningless without action. Some of this action was possible before and we didn't get it.

I'm not sure the voters will get to enjoy the fruit they hoped to sew with Prop 36 passing.

MUNI has a spending problem. For every dollar they ear they spend $1.05
This is true regardless of how much they generate.

The generate another $100M they'll find a way to spend $105M giving them more money seems to only exacerbate the problem.
They might do better if they generate $0 :)

@auweia1 @TeamJConr @mattdorsey Yep. and now the whole area is overrun.

@SusanDReynolds @MLNow @jrivanob Maybe his chatgpt subscription expired

[Keith Freedman - 基思 ‧ 費里德曼 @USRepKeith]

Daniel gets a say in who our first "Inspector General" is, that's probably a good thing.

Better than if Peskin got to choose that person.
E will get some movement on reducing our commissions, but who knows if that will ever bear fruit.

He does have the advantage of not being beholden to the vestiges of Willie Brown's infrastructure.

From his Press Conference, he seemed to indicate he's going to be searching for the best people which I took to mean "new people"

[Keith Freedman - 基思 ‧ 費里德曼 @USRepKeith]

Prop D didn't pass so Lurie can't just let Scott go.
I don't remember, but I think only 1 commission seat changes in 2025. So he may face some of the same challenges.

It's also entirely possible that the Chief was doing the job Breed expected of him and with a new boss comes a new mandate..

[Keith Freedman - 基思 ‧ 費里德曼 @USRepKeith]

It's not unheard of for a failed president to achieve success back at a more local office.

Mitt Romney is a great example. Not everyone goes by way of the Gore.

She could potentially get re-elected as a State Senator. but she'd have to steal back Alex seat.

I'm not sure people are that pleased with Rob Bonta so I could see her return to that seat, but I think she'd see it as a demotion relative to VP. Senate is Respectable.

[Keith Freedman - 基思 ‧ 費里德曼 @USRepKeith]

@conorj_SF Um.. London breed did all kinds of stunts. why was it ok for "bang bang" breed, but not the new mayor?

I was hoping the hypocrisy would end after the election, but seems you've renewed your subscription.

[Keith Freedman - 基思 ‧ 費里德曼 @USRepKeith]

@sfboehner 💩

[Keith Freedman - 基思 ‧ 費里德曼 @USRepKeith]

I disagree slightly. I think the pandemic wasn't what cost her the job. It was the corruption partly, bust mostly was the post-pandemic .. She had nearly a full 4 year term after the pandemic to do the job and she just didn't get it done.

That was the problem. We gave her an additional year and she waited until August to start to do the job.

[Keith Freedman - 基思 ‧ 費里德曼 @USRepKeith]

@MylesPynchon @MarkFarrellSF @DanielLurie We take what victories we can.
No breed and no Peskin is a win-win for San Francisco.

Neither have a strong hold on the newly elected Board members.

@dwbudd that data is there, but it's a longer project to do that analysis. I'll see if I get time

[Keith Freedman - 基思 ‧ 費里德曼 @USRepKeith]

Processing the data:

@Scott_Wiener Just to be clear. The Trump administration doesn't take office until after the California Legislature reconvenes in January.

I'm unclear what makes this a budgetary emergency.

This is just grandstanding and it is unnecessary and unhelpful.

@oaklandencamped Only if those children plan to engage in a life of petty crime.

4 year plan: Refuse to engage in speculation. Make tons of art. Make friends. Be a good friend and a good neighbor. Focus on what is good and decent in this world, so it can grow.

[Keith Freedman - 基思 ‧ 費里德曼 @USRepKeith]

@rinconhilldad The data will be update around 4:30 PM today.
The numbers will all change. This is why elections aren't certified on election day.

roughly 150,000 ballots remain to be counted.
