The voters have spoken loud and clear.

WE DID IT, District 10!

Thank you to my wife Seray and our three boys Lennox, Maxwell, and Hendrix. We couldn’t have done any of this without your love and support. This campaign was truly a full family effort.  

To my amazing team—Noah, Justin, Elaine—and the hundreds of volunteers who knocked on doors, made calls, hosted events, and believed in this campaign: THANK YOU! This victory belongs to all of us.

To my family, friends, and every resident who put their trust in me, I am forever grateful.

I was born and raised in these neighborhoods, and I’ve dedicated my life to serving them.

Now, we have an opportunity to write the next chapter together.

I ran to do something, not to be something.

And now the real work begins.

Let’s build the neighborhoods we deserve. Together!

Thank you!

We take door knockers of all ages! 😂🚪

A little family time on the campaign trail! The boys joined me for some neighborhood walks as we head into the final weekend before Election Day.

We still have a few volunteer shifts to fill this weekend. Come join #TeamTheo!

Today, we mourn the loss of Dolores Huerta, a giant of the labor and civil rights movements whose courage, determination, and lifelong commitment to justice changed our city, our state, and our nation for the better forever.

Dolores dedicated her life to standing up for working families, fighting discrimination, and giving a voice to people who too often went unheard. She reminded us that real change begins when ordinary people come together, organize, and refuse to accept injustice.

As someone who was raised by a single mom who worked concessions at Candlestick Park, I know how important her fight was to families like mine. Her legacy is a reminder that every worker deserves dignity, every family deserves opportunity, and every community deserves to be heard.

My heart goes out to her family, loved ones, and the countless people whose lives she touched. We honor her memory not just with our words, but by continuing the work she devoted her life to.

Sí, se puede!

Getting things done at City Hall requires leading with collaboration, not intimidation or fear.

I was born and raised in the neighborhood and know firsthand the challenges our communities face and the opportunities ahead.

Delivering results means working across differences, building relationships, and bringing people together. Partnerships aren’t just necessary they’re required to get things done.

“District 10 needs a supervisor who can press for housing and economic opportunity while looking out for residents who have too often borne the costs of bad city decisions. Ellington’s roots in the district and his experience and ability to work across economic, social and political lines make him the strongest choice.”

Make sure you find time to visit Sco’s in Bayview! 🔥

The ceviche is fresh, the guac is decadent, and the vibes are solid!

It’s Restaurant Week, so there’s even more reason to stop by, enjoy some great food, and show love to Hugo and his family-run business.

Good food, good people, and supporting the neighborhood businesses is what it’s all about.

My grandfather was a Laborer who helped build the roads and maintained the Golden Gate Bridge. He was able to purchase a home on Third and Palou, where he lived with his three daughters and my 10 cousins. L

In today’s San Francisco that wouldn’t be possible.

I’m running for supervisor to make sure every family can afford to live here, feel safe for every neighborhood to thrive.

Proud to have the support of the working men and women who keep San Francisco running! 💪🏾

From our firefighters and healthcare workers to carpenters, plumbers, electricians, janitors, and Teamsters, these unions represent the people who build our city, care for our families, and keep our neighborhoods moving.

February 2013 San Francisco Magazine: “Stop-and-frisk struck a personal note with Ellington. Cops have pulled guns on him, and once a SWAT team broke down the door of his house.”

“This 24-year-old community organizer from the Bayview has, in his brief career, held posts on various city commissions, worked for local political campaigns, and become a leader in the city’s shrinking African-Ameri-

He led the opposition to Mayor Ed Lee’s brief, doomed flirtation with “stop-and-frisk,” an ethically dubious policy that allows police to stop anyone whom they deem “suspicious-looking.”

Now, as Ellington joins the city commission
Stand Up For Justice that oversees billions in development projects, he is also emerging as one of the millennial generation’s most potent political voices-and, insiders say, a rising citywide leader.”

We have a lot of work to do. But I’m ready to lead in this moment!

I’m a SF native who’ll ensure D10 gets the same investment as the rest of the City.

When I was 24 years old, we led a coalition opposing Stop and Frisk in San Francisco. Christine was there, encouraging us to keep fighting and reminding us that change requires persistence.

At 25, when I began thinking seriously about running for public office one day, I read Campaign Boot Camp, written by Christine. It helped teach me about the grit, discipline, and determination it takes to advocate for change both on the issues and at the ballot box.

More than a decade later, I’m incredibly proud and grateful to have Christine’s support as I continue the work that inspired me all those years ago. @sfpelosi

What are your thoughts on the potential closure of the Islais Creek Bridge?

Transportation should be designed to connect our neighborhoods to the rest of the city and region, not divide us.

Any closure of the Islais Creek Bridge would have real impacts on residents, workers, small businesses, and transit riders across the Southeast.

Preparing for that possibility will require all hands on deck: real community involvement, coordination across City services, and equitable treatment from SFMTA so the Southeast isn’t left carrying the burden of another major transportation disruption.

I want to hear from you, share your thoughts.

I pour into my community because this community has poured so much into me.

This weekend, celebrating my birthday and opening the doors to our office, I felt that love come full circle. I was surrounded by people who genuinely want to bring our neighborhoods together, uplift one another, and see our community thrive.

I’ve said it from day one: I believe in leading with collaboration, not intimidation or fear. Bringing people together isn’t just necessary; it’s what’s required to build the neighborhoods we deserve.

Another Leland Avenue Night Market in the books! 🙌🏾

I love seeing the community come out to celebrate one another, spend time with neighbors, and support the small businesses that make Leland Avenue special.

Thank you to everyone who helped bring another great night to Visitacion Valley and a special thank you to Board President Rafael Mandelman for joining us!

Hot take (or maybe not): the T-Third is a valuable service and actually reliable! 🚊

Can it be better? Absolutely.

Signal prioritization. Fewer switchbacks. Cleaner and safer platforms. Reliable ADA access. And a real plan to avoid service disruptions when the Islais Creek Bridge needs major work.

For thousands of residents on the Southeast side, the T connects our neighborhoods to jobs, schools, healthcare, Downtown, Chinatown and the rest of San Francisco.

We should be focused on making it faster, cleaner, safer, more accessible, and more reliable.
