ELECTION: Voters have given broad support to a number of ballot measures. As of now, the only prop we are still waiting to call is Prop. A, the Muni bond, which needs 2/3 of votes (66%) to pass.
San Francisco voters on Tuesday gave broad support to a number of ballot measures meant to reign in government corruption and inefficiency.
Not only did San Francisco voters recall District Attorney Chesa Boudin, they also rejected a proposal to limit their ability to recall future politicians.Though it enjoys a monopoly on commercial and residential waste hauling in San Francisco, Recology has come under scrutiny in recent years for its role in a wide-ranging corruption scandal and for overcharging ratepayers.
The proposition expands regulations on behested payment to include the Board of Supervisors, who will be barred from soliciting payments from contractors whose contracts they approve. The changes are also meant to lessen industry influence on the Department of Building Inspection and streamline the permitting process for renovations and new construction, according to proponents, which include the Board of Supervisors.
