Upcoming Races
With casual musings and informed whispers regarding future San Francisco elections on the rise, your Usual Suspects team has determined that it is time to create a home for all of this gossip. Below, we’ve listed the major upcoming local elections scheduled through 2011 and have dropped a few names (in alpha order, mind you) of rumored and declared candidates for your consideration. Know something we don’t? Send us an email and tell us who’s mulling over a run for office and who is most definitely not. We’re happy to link to official candidate websites as well.
