Election could bring major shift to San Francisco Board of Supervisors
SAN FRANCISCO - The San Francisco Board of Supervisors will see an influx of new members after the November election.
The city staggers its elections for supervisors, and this cycle, the odd-numbered districts are on the ballot.
Jason McDaniel, a political science professor at San Francisco State University, said that with six seats at stake, the election will serve as a barometer of the city's political leanings.
"What's interesting for me is this election has been kind of an anti-incumbent election. But also an election where progressive politicians are on the defensive," said McDaniel.
